The Tumour Foundation of BC has been working around the clock to ensure our services remain available to everyone who needs them. Our staff and volunteers have been working virtually for more than a decade, so we have been able to adapt our programs quickly.Here are five ways we are currently serving the community:
Our support meetings are now held exclusively online and have shifted from monthly to weekly gatherings.
We continue to offer confidential 1:1 support calls for anyone who wants to talk through fear or uncertainty, or has questions about living with NF. You can email info@tumourfoundation.ca or call us at 1-800-385-2263 to schedule a session.
We are finishing developing treatment guideline brochures for adults with NF1. The brochures will be available on our website in May 2020 for download and use at doctors’ appointments.
We launched the first NF Read-a-thon! Not only is this a fun activity to entertain children during lockdown, but will help build literacy skills for the 80% of children with NF who have learning disabilities.
Our annual symposium on September 26th will continue, although this year the event will be 100% virtual.
