We are delighted to be working in partnership with a local employment law firm, to offer practical guidance and help employers create the right framework to support employees with cancer and protect the organisation. This face-to-face workshop will be held at the Maggie's Centre Wirral. This is a free workshop that equips employers with the relevant skills, knowledge and understanding to effectively support colleagues affected by cancer.

There is an ever-increasing need to provide expert support and guidance to employers and employees affected by cancer – the number of people living with cancer in the UK is expected to rise to four million by 2030.

Maggie’s Cancer in the Workplace workshop can help HR managers, Line Managers, and employees to support colleagues affected by cancer.

Booking is free, but as a charity we would be hugely grateful if you would consider making a donation to our Centre if more than one person is booking from the same organisation. A donation would ensure we are able to continue to support people affected by cancer in Merseyside and Cheshire.
