Volunteering

😃 What reasons have you got to be cheerful this week?

🎗️ Last week was “National Volunteer’s Week - so well done to all the volunteers out there that give up their time for good causes.

🐕‍🦺 I’ve mentored a young person for several years with MCR Pathways - he’s currently in the middle of his GCSEs.

👏 To all those students currently taking exams - keep your energy levels up in the final push - then you can enjoy celebrating finishing them.

🔬 Also last week saw c. 40k of the brightest minds in cancer research Chicago get together for the world’s biggest cancer conference to review and celebrate breakthroughs in cancer diagnosis and treatment. 

💜One of these was for pancreatic cancer. Trials of a pill Daraxonrasib slowed tumour growth and doubled life expectation for those diagnosed. This is significant given how aggressive PC is. 👏
