Twitter party: What makes a difference with cancer?

Sometimes it’s the little things that mean the most. At our #littlebigthings Twitter party we’ll be sharing the little things we can do to help cope with and fight cancer, that may seem small, but could make a big difference. These could be small gestures to help someone with cancer, or raising funds to fight the disease by taking part in a charity run or bake sale. Or simply eating more healthily and ensuring you and your family have regular health checks.

Tweet your tips, insight or action with the #littlebigthings hashtag from 13:00 – 14:00 on Tuesday 13 November and you could win a £75 pamper pack from The Sanctuary and have £100 donated to Cancer Research UK in your name.

The party is sponsored by AXA PPP healthcare (@AXAPPPHealth), which has a new “pinboard” for people affected by cancer to share inspirational tips and practical information on the disease and its treatment.

You can go now to the little big things inspirational online “pinboard” to share your experiences and advice – as well as watch videos and discussions with healthcare professionals about the little big things that make a difference: The company’s Cancer Centre also offers a wealth of information and resources for patients and their loved ones and forms part of AXA PPP healthcare’s focus on cancer support.

What to do next: Check out the resources available from AXA PPP healthcare, follow @BritMums and @AXAPPPhealth, and mark your calendar to come share the #littlebigthings that you’ve found make a difference in coping and fighting cancer.
