About this event

An ABC UK online webinar session which is being run on Zoom.  This event is in response to requests for information from bladder cancer patients - it is aimed at people who have undergone a cystectomy in the last two years and are living with a urostomy.

The session will be led by the ABC UK Patient Support team together with a stoma nurse, and also a male and a female bladder cancer patient (who are both living with a urostomy).

The focus of the event is to give useful information such as how to best care for your stoma and pouch management as well as practical tips for everyday life. Our two patient representatives will also share their experiences of how to live well with a urostomy giving information on everyday living such as clothing, sport and exercise, travel and returning to work.

There will be a facility to ask questions which will be put to our speakers at the end of the session and also to contact ABC UK afterwards. It will also be an opportunity to hear about the work of Action Bladder Cancer UK and the support we can offer for those with bladder cancer.

This webinar is open to bladder cancer patients in the UK who have had a urostomy within the last 2 years only.

Please register to attend and you will be sent details on how to join the event.
