COPES June NEWS 2025
We welcome any members, or any woman who has been diagnosed with a gynaecological cancer, no matter where or when, to our next Coffee Morning Support Group.
SUPPORT GROUP COFFEE MORNING
This will be held on Saturday June 7th, from 10 am to 1 pm at the Ekco Sports and Social Club, Thornford Gardens, Southend. SS2 6PU.
We hope that you can join us for free support, complementary therapies, refreshments, a raffle…all run by women who have had gynaecological cancers for women who have been diagnosed with a gynae cancer.
Our members have commented how upbeat and supportive the sessions are, because we understand what it’s like!
COPES AIMS IN ACTION
We were pleased to receive a report on some of the spending that our COPES members have contributed to the further development of four of the CNS team at Southend and Basildon Hospitals. We know how much you all appreciate the support of the CNS teams.
In what sounds like a really interesting and worthwhile conference, featuring national and international speakers, updating CNS teams from all over the country, four of our CNSs were able to benefit from the National Conference in Liverpool last year.
COPES contributions don’t pay for the educational elements of these events but we enable expenses to be claimed by our hard-working CNS team, in order for them to attend these type of events.
CLAY COTTAGE POTTERY PARTY AND AFTERNOON TEA
An fun creative afternoon was had by all of the 37 people who attended, the afternoon tea was delicious and the venue generously donated £185 to COPES. Our thanks to Sue for organising this popular event. Our next similar one will hopefully be in the late Autumn.
Any items you have made can be collected at the June Coffee Morning or by contacting Sue
