I met the Pink Sisters just after my cancer diagnosis and was over-whelmed by their support, understanding and love. I wasn't on my own; they'd been there, done that and were surviving, laughing , inspiring. Tough as old boots and endlessly kind, they are Stoke women at their absolute best and I am proud to be a Pink. Through treatment, through recovery and even now, three years on, when the fear creeps in, Pink Sisters are there for me. "Together we are stronger."

The Pink Sister & Misters is a cancer support group and charity based in Stoke on Trent and available to anyone who has been touched by cancer and is undergoing treatment, living with or surviving cancer. We offer face to face group meetings, private forums, drop in centre for private one to one discussions and support. We also have a static caravan for use by our members as respite while going through treatment or to make special memories with families. Our motto is "Together We Are Stronger" as we feel that having others to talk to helps.
