Lifebuoy was privileged to document real families living with cancer in a ground-breaking educational documentary released on the Women’s Hospital video channels. The video series, funded by the Women’s, discusses many aspects of parenting with cancer and is aimed at supporting families to communicate with young children when a parent or carer is diagnosed with cancer. Currently all information on this topic is literature based, so it was exciting that we were involved in the development of a world first, visual resource that will now be able to reach, and help, thousands of families wherever they can access the Internet.
