Hi My name is Carol. I am a community Liaison who has mainly been involved with Cancer Council NSW in various roles including their community speaking program and with Lymphoedema Support Group of NSW. My group the Upper North Shore group of the LSG of NSW has just been registered as a BCNA group last week. I learned so much at the Summit in the Active and well stream and now get to put it into practice with my group starting tonight when we have a physiotherapist who also trains new lymphoedema therapists talk to us on various techniques including liposuction, traditional lymphoedema massage, laser, kinesio taping and the new physio touch negative pressure device she has been using on my radiation scar and lymphoedema arm recently. all welcome if you can make it to Waitara to the Asquith Leagues Club for a 6pm start. this is one of our 4 meetings per year in February, May, August and November with many members attending the annual info day in march and other events as they arise.
hope to learn lots more re running a successful group from all of you more experienced ladies
Carol
