Head & Neck Cancer<br />
patients have unique problems<br />
such as Dry Mouth, Swallowing,<br />
Eating and many other issues. It is<br />
therefore so important that worldwide we<br />
come together as ‘one voice’ and share<br />
our experiences to help others.<br />
“Cancer is a long and hard<br />
journey, but you don’t have to<br />
walk the road alone. You will meet<br />
many good people who are<br />
there to help and guide you<br />
It is my dream to have a worldwide patient<br />
ambassador programme that allows<br />
patients and carers to talk, support and<br />
signpost other like-minded people to<br />
the services, medicines and<br />
treatments that are<br />
available.<br />
on the road. They will find<br />
you when you are least<br />
expecting it.<br />
”<br />
The Swallows Head & Neck Cancer Support Charity<br />
now reaches out across the globe via the website and Social<br />
Media sites. In total we now engage with more than 5,000 patients,<br />
carers, health professionals and many other like-minded people.<br />
We are all very proud of this book and hope you enjoy it as much as we<br />
have enjoyed putting it together. Feel free to contact me directly if you would<br />
