Welcome to the first episode of the Cornwall Cancer Cafe Podcast. We are supported financially by the National Lottery Community Fund to run a year of weekly cancer support podcasts. These will be a weekly audio show and some videos too. We aim to give people with a diagnosis, their family and friends a big virtual hug while also informing and offering a hand of friendship.

We are not medical experts, counsellors, doctors, or consultants - what we are, though are people with lived experience. Your host, Matthi Clarke, is shown in this episode's cover image having his stem cells harvested for a stem cell transplant in 2023. Matthi takes you through what to expect from this podcast series in this show, and introduces himself so that you can be assured that he is hosting this with real and recent lived experience.

Though this is targeted at the Cornwall,UK audience, we hope the hug and support travels further afield too.
