"I am blessed to be on the road to recovery. One of the treasures in my support tool kit is the Ovacome Craft group - loving crafting, the side effects of chemo have proved a bit challenging at times and I had lost not only ability but also a huge amount of confidence - these gentle wonderful sessions have ignited a real spark and with Faith's gentle encouragement I am finding the whole experience truly healing."

"The crafting sessions are fabulous - Faith puts so much thought & care into each project so whatever issues you are managing, with her support it’s all doable - having been left with quite bad neuropathy after my first chemo I lost so much confidence as an artist & crafter & these sessions have played a huge part in me finding ‘my’ way to express myself through creative mindfulness"
