WOMEN who have had gynaecological cancer are invited to learn more about reflexology and complementary therapies at the GOSSIP Gynae-oncology Group when it meets at Yeovil Women's Hospital next Monday 26th October between 5 and 6.30pm.

The GOSSIP patient support group provides advice and information for women with gynaecological cancer. It was founded by the Gynaecological Cancer Specialist Nurses based in Yeovil and Taunton in partnership with women from across Somerset and Dorset who have had gynaecological cancers (i.e. cancers of the ovary, womb, vulva or cervix).

Attending meetings enables patients to meet with other women who have a similar diagnosis and may have had similar treatments. Partners, family members and friends are welcome to go along as well. A specialist nurse is present at meetings and will be happy to answer questions and discuss concerns on a one-to-one basis.

For more information contact Eileen Fort at Yeovil District Hospital NHS Foundation Trust on 01935 384454.
