Any Person - Any Cancer - Any Time
At Look Good Feel Better our FREE programmes are for any person, facing any cancer, at any time in your treatment to help you feel a sense of control and normality.
Treatment can affect your sense of self and make you feel like a patient and not a person.
Our classes are a chance to connect and spend time with people who understand what you are going through. Everyone's treatment is different. You will sit around a table with many cancers but one community. You can attend as many as you feel and also access our online resources and podcasts.
