We are excited to announce that Anna Adlam, Associate Professor/Clinical Psychologist will be once again be joining us to share her expertise in supporting survivors of brain tumours in building their own resilience to cope with the Stress and Anxiety of every day life.

The workshop aims:

To learn strategies to build resilience, which can help with managing stress.
To discuss current approaches to building resilience (e.g., identifying our strengths and supports), and how we can make these more specific to survivors of childhood brain tumours and parents/carers who might be experiencing stress.
To evaluate resources used in the session to support adaption to a self-help guide for use by survivors and their families.

This workshop is suitable for parents/carers, and young people (aged 13+ years) and adults who have survived childhood brain tumours.
