Support available for this event
If you require support to attend one of our in-person events, please let us know when you sign up. We always ensure the venues we use are accessible for anyone with disabilities.
Some examples of support we can give include:
- Translators including BSL. We usually require around three weeks advanced notice to allow for booking.
- Receiving slides or information ahead of the session
- Reserve a seat close to the speakers
- Travel assistance - we can help you with planning your travel to our event, and where possible arrange for a member of the team to accompany you on your journey to the event if you need assistance.
- Financial assistance – we want to ensure that Ovacome members can access the events they want to without worrying about the associated costs. For example, we can help cover the price of transport to attend an in-person event and contribute to accommodation expenses if staying away from home to join an Ovacome event. You may feel tired after attending an event. we can arrange accommodation in advance for you so that you can rest before travelling home. Friends and family are included if they are accompanying a person with an ovarian diagnosis to our events, or if they have access needs themselves.
Please do not attend the health and wellbeing day if you have any symptoms of COVID or any other contagious illness, as some of our members are immunocompromised.
"I came out of [the event] feeling like a superwoman. All of a sudden you just think: there's all these things I can do. It's one of the most powerful things I've ever done."
- Gill who attended one of our London Health and Wellbeing Days
"Thank you for a lovely interesting day which has improved my confidence a lot."
- Caroline, who came to our Liverpool Health and Wellbeing Day
All of our ovarian cancer events, webinars, workshops and support groups are free. However, if you can spare a few pounds to cover the cost of your registration, this will help us continue to provide free support to those who aren’t able to do so. You can make a donation when you register. Thank you so much for your support.
