💜 Supporting Women Living with Cancer 💜

A cancer diagnosis can affect every part of your life, which is why it’s so important to take time to care for your emotional and physical wellbeing too.

From September 2026, Derry Well Women will be offering FREE Complementary Therapy sessions on a Wednesday morning for women living with or navigating a cancer diagnosis.

These relaxing, supportive sessions provide an opportunity to pause, unwind and focus on you in a safe, welcoming environment alongside women who understand.

If you would like to find out more or book your place, we’d love to hear from you.

💜 THE WELL PROGRAMME 💜

Following a cancer diagnosis, it can sometimes feel as though so much of life is suddenly outside your control.

The Well Programme at Derry Well Women offers a safe, supportive space to help you begin to rebuild your confidence, look after your emotional and physical wellbeing, and feel more in control as you move forward.

🌸 Beginning Wednesday 23rd September 2026
🕥 10.30am – 1.30pm
💜 Running over 10 weeks

Throughout the programme, we will explore practical ways to:

💜 Better manage stress
💜 Support your wellbeing and immune system
💜 Safely explore complementary therapies
💜 Develop nourishing eating plans
💜 Discover the value of exercise, music and spirituality
💜 Harness your creativity
💜 And importantly… make fun and enjoyment a priority in your life again.

The Well Programme is about more than managing the effects of cancer. It is about helping you reconnect with yourself, regain confidence and find support alongside others who understand that life after a diagnosis can bring many different challenges.

Thanks to the support of Macmillan Cancer Support, the programme is fully funded.

🎶 Lullaby Project – featuring The Henry Sisters

A creative health and wellbeing programme for mums and their babies

The Lullaby Project offers mums a unique opportunity to work alongside musicians to create a personal lullaby especially for their baby.

Over eight weeks, mums will be gently supported through the creative process of developing their own lullaby – capturing their thoughts, feelings, hopes and wishes for their little one through music.

Based on a model established by Carnegie Hall in New York and informed by ten years of research, the Lullaby Project uses the power of music and creativity to support maternal mental health, early childhood development, bonding and family wellbeing.

No musical or singing experience is needed – just come along, enjoy the experience and create something truly personal that you and your baby can treasure. 💕

Featuring The Henry Sisters

📅 Begins: Monday 21st September 2026
⏰ 10.00am – 12 noon
🗓️ Runs for 8 weeks

Registration

📅 Thursday 10th September
⏰ 9.30am – 2.00pm
📍 Derry Well Women, 20a Queen Street

Registration takes place in person, so please call into Derry Well Women during the registration times above.

🎵 A lullaby written from you, especially for your baby – a memory to treasure long after the programme ends.
