Show Notes

And we're back!

Welcome to season 2 of Sound Waves, the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust's official podcast.

Our season premiere coincides with the launch of the Trust's Virtual Summer, our programme of activities for the 2020 season. From making the 'hardest decision in the Trust's history' just a number of weeks ago when we decided to cancel all our trips for the year, to packing the next few months full of events for young people to access fun, support, and advice, we're all super excited to share what's in store.

There's a celebratory feel in the air as host Scott is joined by CEO Frank Fletcher, Youth Board member Krissi Cartwright Riley, and Ellie Mae and her mum Nikki. Ellie Mae is 12 years old and has been on four Trust trips, and has been a familiar face on Trust Tuesday hangouts over the last little while.

The gang talk about how the Virtual Summer came together, what everyone is looking forward to, and how young people in recovery need support now more than ever with the world still coping with the effects of the coronavirus. 

So come aboard - we can't wait to see you!
