The National Conference for Cancer Survivorship 2018 – Living Well with Cancer is The Irish Cancer Society's annual national conference for cancer survivors, those who care for them, health care professionals, staff or volunteers from community based cancer support services. This year’s conference will take place in:
Galway – Saturday, 15 September in the Clayton Hotel, Ballybrit, 10am – 4.30pm
The aim of the conference is to provide information and support to enable people to live well after a cancer diagnosis.
Attendance is free of charge. Online registration opens 25th July 2018
This conference is an essential part of the Irish Cancer Society's work. It is where they hear from cancer patients and seek to understand and address the needs of the whole person not just the cancer. It is where they share, learn and support.
You will hear from a range of speakers who will share their experiences, stories and expert knowledge. There are practical sessions with art, writing, music, sleep, exercise, nutrition and much, much more.

The Survivor’s Celebration Walk has become Tuam Cancer Care’s biggest annual fundraising event.
This year the walk takes place on Sunday 14th October, in The Place Grounds Tuam, starting at 2pm.
The walk gives us an opportunity to celebrate cancer survivors and their families and friends, in a lively, warm atmosphere. The event also reflects the support that people receive through our services, with music and entertainment and at the same time raises much needed funds for the Centre.
In addition to the Walk we will again be having a tree planting remembrance ceremony where people can tie ribbons to our newly planted tree in memory of people they have lost through cancer. Ribbons can be purchased on the day for €2.
