Free of Charge
If you have cancer, have a friend or loved one who does, or have lost someone to cancer, Gilda’s Club Simcoe Muskoka is here for you. With a variety of activities to choose from each month, we know you’ll find something to your liking. Below you can find more information on the Program offered at Gilda’s Club Simcoe Muskoka.
SUPPORT & NETWORKING GROUPS
Gilda’s Club offers ongoing, professional-facilitated support, networking and bereavement groups to our members. Adult groups run throughout the year, while child and youth groups are offered more sporadically, based on the needs of our specific community.
EDUCATIONAL LECTURES
We offer a variety of educational lectures and workshops. Some sessions are very cancer-specific, focusing on such topics as cancer types, treatments and side effects and post-treatment information. Other educational pieces are more broad in conversation and, in the past, have included nutrition, skin care, will and estate planning and gut health.
HEALTHY LIVING
Gilda’s Club Simcoe Muskoka provides an opportunity to experience a broad rage of movement classes, including specialized classes for members on active treatment. Healthy Living doesn’t stop at movement classes. We also offer self-discovery, mindfulness and meditation programs.
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
Our social programming has proven to be some of our most popular activities. From smaller groups to larger community parties, these get-togethers are meant to build a sense of community and belonging for all our members. We warmly encourage members to invite their family and friends to our social events.
