CancerHelp, which has homes in Ribbleton and Garstang, supports cancer patients, their families and carers through the impact of diagnosis and the effects of the disease and its treatment.

The charity uses art and craft therapy to encourage patients to express themselves creatively and spiritually in order to come to terms with their condition.

The exhibition launch is taking place on Saturday 21 May from 5.30pm to 7.30pm.
