Stories of Cancer and Hope book Launch

Stories of Cancer and Hope is a collection of thirtyfive stories from people whose lives have been affected by various types of cancer and the hope is that by sharing their stories of how cancer has affected them, and what hope means/meant to them.  This can be shared with people newly diagnosed with cancer so they don't feel alone. Some of the stories are told by relatives who have lost family members to cancer, and each story has an element of hope.

Everyone involved in the publishing of this book has given their time free of charge, and we will be donating at least 1,000 books to cancer charities to give away, thanks to a generous donation from Commsworld in Edinburgh. When the book is available for sale in May 2023, all profits will go to Melanoma UK who helped me following my stage 4 Melanoma Diagnosis.

Thank you

We are hosting the book launch and celebration of "Stories of Cancer and Hope" on Saturday 20th May 2023 at Borroughmuir Rugby Club in Edinburgh, to thank everyone involved in the publishing of this book.
