Spotlight On
This month we are highlighting –
Rachel, of our wonderful Volunteer Placement Counsellors who has been with the charity since September 2023.
Rachel says “I am so pleased to be involved with CancerHelp at Vine House as I know what vital and life-enhancing help the charity provides to the public, both people affected by cancer and their family members. My favourite thing is being able to provide support to people affected by cancer, and also working alongside such kind hearted, genuine people who want to make a real difference to people’s lives. I would like to see continued success and positive outcomes for the charity, reaching as many people in need as possible and I would like to successfully achieve my level 4 diploma qualification in Therapeutic Counselling in 2024”. Rachel has been a Holistic Therapist and Reiki healer for over 22 years and really believes in every person’s right to achieve happiness and wellbeing for themselves in their life. She told us that a long time ago, in my previous life, she worked in TV as a sound mixer and once spent the afternoon with Bruce Forsyth in his lounge at his home. She was completely starstruck! We are so fortunate to have people such as Rachel working with our teams – our charity really does benefit from the input of students, who not only learn from our therapists but also share the latest practices and research with us so that we can keep up to date in the way we support our clients.
