Bottoms Up support group

'I run a Support Group for Bowel/Bladder/Prostate Cancer patients called Bottoms Up, and we have received a Macmillan Support Grant in the past, which has been a great help in the upkeep of support to many local patients.

We support up to 70 past and present patients, and their carers, with 20-30 attending our monthly meetings. The grant enabled us to buy essential equipment for the group, which made continuity of our meetings much easier.

Thank you so much Macmillan!' - John Whelpton, Bottoms Up
