testimonials

Really enjoyed the session and definitely should have more of these.

This is an excellent platform for raising awareness.

Amazing Session! Keep up the great work.

"I have been attending Cancer Support Service regularly for about a year. My father was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago, which was a shock to us all. I've tried to be strong for my family, but I've found that I needed support too. Everyone at GLM has been supportive and understanding. I look forward to seeing the friendly faces."

“Thank you so much sister. I have felt so peaceful. Its been very emotional as well as so beloved moment. I dont have friends yet it felt like you all were my friends. You made this happen for me sister may Allah reward you. And the sister subhanallah shes like a beautiful flower and the minute she spoke about the school subhanallah i got so happy i felt so connected and relaxed idk but i have always been very attached to my primary school” A service user who attended our Wellness Walk for the first time:
