Plymouth Cancer Champions Project

This week a Plymouth Cancer Champion reminded us about this....thanks Gina 🙂.

If you're affected by cancer the Priority Services Register is something to know about. It's free, easy to sign up and helps utility companies look after customers who might have extra needs (for all sorts of reasons). Health could be one of those reasons.

It offers extra support to households who need extra help with everyday energy matters like bills, and also in the unlikely event of a power cut, gas or water supply interruption.

If you are worried about any issues to do with gas or electricity Plymouth Energy Community are there to help. Friendly, helpful and what they don't know isn't worth knowing ❤️

Here's the link to sign up to the Priority Services Register...

The Priority Services Register (PSR) is a free UK wide service which provides extra advice and support, including when there’s an interruption to your electricity or gas supply.

One of the monthly Cake and Cuppa meet ups happens at Mount Wise Neighbourhood Centre . It's a great community space and the Cake and Cuppa is always really popular. But...the building needs a bit of TLC and there are some fantastic plans for the future too.

The centre is running a GoFundMe Fundraiser - here's the link if you'd like to donate or could share with people you know 🙂

May is Skin Cancer Awareness month. In the South West we have the highest rates of skin cancer in the UK so self checks are really important.

If you’re worried about a mole or something unusual - get it checked.

The ABCDE checklist…know the signs of melanoma 😊
