Charity of the Month January 2024:

Ovacome UK – How They Help

Ovacome is the UK’s national ovarian cancer support charity, and we have been providing free information and support to anyone affected by ovarian cancer since our inception in 1996. This includes people diagnosed with the disease, or those at risk, as well as family members, friends, and the healthcare professionals working in ovarian cancer treatment and care. 

We are very active in raising public awareness and educating healthcare professionals about the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer, to improve outcomes for those affected. Since 2014, we have trained over 6,797 medical students and clinicians who work in gynaecology oncology through our Survivors Teaching Students and Enhancing Patient Experience programmes. 

Our services have been recognised through a number of national award nominations as excellent; we were shortlisted in the top 3 UK Health Charities in the 2022 Civil Society Charity Awards for our work to reduce health inequalities in ovarian cancer treatment and support.

We were also recognised as the BBC All in the Mind national awards for our work towards improve mental health and reducing isolation for those diagnosed with ovarian cancer, in 2021!

Derbyshire Blood Bikes – About Us

All our services are funded by public donations and provided free to the NHS. By reducing the number of private couriers and taxi use we can save the NHS money that can be spent elsewhere.

While we are called the Blood Bikes, we courier so much more. We carry urgent diagnostic samples, frozen breast milk, patient medication and much more to wherever it needs to be.

When one of Derbyshire’s rural hospitals needs a sample analysed at a larger hospital miles away – we can get it there. We’ve delivered urgent medication to vulnerable patients at home. During lockdown we helped distribute much needed supplies between NHS facilities. Whatever we carry, our trained volunteers deliver it safely and professionally.

You’ll see our bikes and cars across Derbyshire and maybe a little further afield. Being a rural county our riders often traverse the county from South Derbyshire to the northern moors of Buxton and Glossop.

While most of our pick-ups originate from within Derbyshire we’ll deliver to where-ever it needs to go. We are often asked to deliver to Sheffield, Birmingham, Nottingham and Manchester. Occasionally we’ll be heading down to London or even across to Wales. We also meet up with other Blood Bike groups to relay items. In short , we’ll get it to where it needs to be!

George House Trust – About Us

George House Trust provides services to people living with, and affected by, HIV. George House Trust can offer you one to one advice on matters that may be affecting you right now or which you worry may affect you in the future. As someone living with HIV, you can talk to an adviser on any issue that may concern you and they will advise, signpost or advocate on your behalf.

For many people living with HIV, particularly in the weeks after diagnosis, an important source of support is talking to someone else who is living with HIV. We provide many services that enable you to do this; through courses, training or in relaxed, social groups.

If you have been recently diagnosed with HIV, you may have many questions running through your mind and you may be wondering what help and advice is available to you to support you in coming to terms with the diagnosis. Peer mentoring can help you lead a healthy, happy and confident life with HIV.
