As we launch our Fall Programs, here is an update on our programs:
As the world continues to evolve as a result of COVID-19, HopeSpring Cancer Support Centre has made the decision to continue programming remotely for the foreseeable future. The health, welfare and safety of our members and those on the cancer journey are of the utmost importance to us. We believe this is the safest and best decision to make at this time. We will continue to reassess as time moves forward.

Here's what's the same:
- Cancer Care Counselling is available via the phone and Zoom
- Support Groups are using Zoom
- Most Gentle Exercise programs are using Zoom
- Wigs, Camisoles and head coverings are available and delivered through no contact methods.
- Online registration is available.
- We've created a calendar of our programs. It's available at Fall 2020 Programs Schedule. You can view the calendar, click on the desired program and register from within.
Here's what's changed:
- Once you register online for a program session, Zoom will automatically email you the session link. If you're not comfortable registering online, please give us a call at 519-742-4673 or email volunteer@hopespring.ca and we will assist you.
- The only exception is Cancer Care Counselling. These sessions will be scheduled with you directly. After the session is scheduled, if you selected to have a Zoom session, then the Zoom session link will be provided to you.
- We are trying out using Zoom for registrations. If you need support using Zoom, please view this Zoom Support Video. You can also reach out to volunteer@hopespring.ca or marketing@hopespring.ca for support.
- If you've never used Zoom, they will ask you to download the Zoom app first. The app will ask you to access your camera and microphone.
- Some of our programs, like Relaxation Therapies, Puddle Jumpers, Art Expression and Water Yoga are not available in a remote setting. We are keeping on eye on COVID-19 and best practices to reassess our program offerings in the future.
Please stay safe. Keep your health care appointments. See you soon (virtually)!
