The ABC Cancer Support Group provides a welcoming space for anyone affected by cancer, whether undergoing treatment, in recovery, or supporting a loved one. Hosted by Chesterfield FC Community Trust, the group meets monthly, offering connection, comfort, and conversation in a relaxed setting.
Sessions are held in the SBK Lounge at the SMH Group Stadium. They include refreshments, cakes, and a guest speaker. Speakers range from Trust staff and local support services to small business representatives, offering helpful advice and uplifting stories.
