“I picked up solid advice and tips which have made life that bit easier”

Roland Palmer, 62, was diagnosed with head and neck cancer and his treatment followed swiftly with numerous radio and chemotherapy sessions. After many months of suffering, Roland is now free of cancer and is slowly rebuilding his life with support of his partner.

Roland seized the opportunity to attend a Look Good Feel Better workshop. “Some of the men were reluctant to take part at first,” he says. “But it really was incredibly helpful and I picked up some solid advice and tips which have made life that bit easier. Simple tips such as how to keep your shaving tools bacteria-free were actually a game changer.

Also, the men in the group all talked openly and were able to support each other. It certainly was an afternoon well-spent and I would recommend it to any other man in a similar situation.”
