Laura Ashurst: Becoming Friends with Hope - Living with Cancer

Laura’s story is one of hope and survival against the odds. Diagnosed with secondary breast cancer 11 years ago, she tells an account of her experience of cancer and the impact that has had on her. Through psychological intervention and support Laura has learned to live more presently, understanding that it’s our vulnerabilities that makes us all human. As she feels hopeful once more and driven by her experience of cancer, she campaigns with cancer charities to try to make a difference for others.   Join in the conversation online using #BeingtheStory
