September Song!

Well, September has come around again. Doesn't seem like 12 months since we held our first Womb Cancer Awareness Campaign and yet here we are again!
This year's campaign has had a slow build up as last years was a little bit of a rush job, but nevertheless it was a success and raised our profile - which is good because more women found out about us and are now getting mutual help and support from the women in the group.

We now have 465 people, both male and female, in the main Facebook page. According to FB statistics, we have followers in places like India, Canada, Gibralter, France aswell as US and Ireland.
Its nice to know that we are reaching out to women beyond these shores.

We have 2 events running on FB during September - a month long event to raise awareness https://www.facebook.com/events/488044444558974/  and a one day event to mark International Womb Cancer Awareness Day on 20th https://www.facebook.com/events/185190028280889/  where we are asking people to change their profile pic to something peach to raise global awareness of this cancer.

We have also produced a series of short video's that are available on our youtube channel - the latest of which features some of the women from WCSUK. Check it out here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5z0GZNV5Mys

During the month there will be a series of guest blogs from various women who have been affected by womb cancer. I want to thank them for being so brave and open about their experiences.

If you, or anyone you know needs help and support then you can find us on Facebook here https://www.facebook.com/WombCancerSupportUK  or via our website here http://wombcancersupportuk.wix.com/home

Stay peachy this September!
