Find out more about peer-to-peer support groups

As regular blog readers will know I used to work for Yes to Life and help establish their cancer support groups in real life and online. To find out more about these there is an excellent new radio show with Sara Spinks, the current Co-ordinator for the Yes to Life programme of Wigwam Support Groups. She is an ardent advocate for the many benefits of group work including looking into the deeper questions of life, or simply for mutual support and learning.

All the groups are consistently appreciated by members on a wide variety of levels. During the interview, two Yes to Life Wigwam Group members will also describe what keeps them coming back for more.
