The Look Good Feel Better programme aims to provide positive and practical support women to help them cope with the side effects of cancer treatment.

Receiving a diagnosis of cancer can be devastating and the added stress of changes in physical appearance as a result of treatment can be demoralising and difficult to cope with, for example hair loss caused by some chemotherapy drugs.

Look Good Feel Better is dedicated to improving the self-esteem, confidence and wellbeing of women undergoing treatment for any sort of cancer.

The Look Good Feel Better Workshops together small groups of women in a relaxed and uplifting environment.  The two hour classes are free of charge and are led by volunteer beauty professionals who teach vital skincare and make up techniques to help improve confidence and appearance.  The groups are very informative but most of all, they are fun, interactive and supportive.

Our Look Good Feel Better Workshops are held once a month at Bishop Auckland or Darlington.

All of the sessions will take place from 11am to 1pm, unless otherwise stated. To find out the date of the next workshop and book your place, contact your local Macmillan Information and Support Centre.
