Community Support

Coffee Morning
Every Wednesday morning from 10am-12:30pm, anyone who has been affected by cancer is invited to join us for our weekly coffee morning. Pop along for a cup of coffee and a chat with others going through similar situations, to ask questions and form new connections.

Rhythm of Life Choir
Listen out for the sound of singing coming from The Leveson Centre every Tuesday morning from 11am-12pm. Our Rhythm of Life wellbeing choir meets every week at 10:30am for a quick cup of coffee before practice starts at 11. There is absolutely no need for experience, so whether you’re an avid songbird or secret shower-singer, simply come along and join in the fun!

Arts and Crafts
Get creative in The Leveson Centre with our monthly Arts and Crafts workshop for cancer patients. So far, our classes have covered watercolour pet portraits, recreating Van Gogh’s flowers, sketching buildings in pen and wash, and so much more. No matter your artistic ability, we’d love to have you.
