MARCH 2024 NEUROENDOCRINE CANCER UK QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER

VIRTUAL PATIENT A PRACTICAL RESOURCE FOR ALL THOSE AFFECTED BY NEUROENDOCRINE CANCER You may have spotted the announcement in our December Newsletter introducing the new Virtual Patient Handbook and we are delighted to reveal that this invaluable, free resource has now received over 5000 views! As an ambitious small charity, we are incredibly proud of the scope and quality of our patient information and delighted that we can provide this kind of holistic guide for all those living with neuroendocrine cancer. We believe that it is important that the Handbook caters to a variety of learning styles, and as such, includes written content, videos, images and Q&As to form a comprehensive ‘toolkit’ for all those living with, and affected by, neuroendocrine cancer. Once again, we would like to thank our incredible supporter, Faye Cheetham, whose fundraising, in memory of her husband, Andrew, made the creation of the Handbook a reality. Faye and Andrew’s candidly honest love story is available as a podcast episode HERE or by visiting the Handbook HERE . To make the best use of the digital format, you can enjoy sharing specific pages from the Handbook with loved ones, redirect to external resources and watch embedded videos all with the click of a button. There is also a comprehensive ‘Additional Links & Resources’ section which lists nearly 100 websites, Apps and videos on topics such as sleep, diet, pre-treatment considerations, finance and travel. Just CLICK HERE to go straight to this section of the Handbook. The Handbook also features a handy ‘Abbreviations & Terminology’ section where you can gain clarification on commonly used medical jargon. And finally, we’d like to highlight the 7 Q&A videos that were created especially for the Virtual Handbook. Each video features a different medical expert answering a range of questions, some of which were asked by members of our community. We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback on the Handbook, so please do get in touch by CLICKING HERE.
