Sound Waves

Today (4 May) is the start of Sun Awareness Week. Young people who have undergone treatment for cancer can be at higher risk of developing skin cancer. So staying 'sun safe' is always at the forefront of staff and volunteers' minds on every Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust trip. 

We're joined by two young people - Jade and Jeremy - and 2018's Luke Gilbert Volunteer of the Year Award winner, Rosie, all of whom sailed together last year, to talk about staying safe in the sun as a young person in recovery, while being able to have fun too.

We also hear from Nick, Head of Marketing at Musto, who have been the Trust's official clothing partner since the very beginning in 2003. Nick explains exactly how the clothing Musto provides for the young people, staff and volunteers helps to protect everyone from the dangers of the sun.

Welcome to the official podcast of the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust! 

Host Scott Wilson is joined by Trust CEO Frank Fletcher, youth board member Dan Bishop, and beloved volunteer Wen Stone in episode one to discuss the elephant in the room – isolation. They chat about the different kinds of isolation people are going through, working from home, and how one guest is adapting to married life after lockdown kicked in a few days after their wedding!
