Tanya’s Courage Trust

Iris & Nikki from Tanya’s Courage Trust spoke to the members about the Charity formed in memory of Iris’s daughter who fought Adult Acute Myloid Leukaemia before losing her fight aged 17. Tanya expressed a wish to help others of her age. The Trust aims to support teenagers and young adult cancer sufferers (16-25) and their families throughout Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. President Carole taught both Tanya & Nikki. At present over 50 families are receiving support in a great many ways. The proceeds from the weekly Wednesday Charlestown Tombola  and the Cheese & wine evening at the home of Soroptimist Jane Bridges on 13th July are going to this unique and much appreciated Charity.
