The GlioBabes, a podcast created by two young women who were both diagnosed with brain tumours at a young age. Mel and Mol are creating a safe space to talk about their experiences and to raise awareness of brain tumours and ill health within the young population.
In this series we return to cover more topics of relevance, that you’ve requested and we think need to be spoken about. Episode 3 was originally about societal views of someone when they get sick, especially young people. But it took a turn as we reflected on some of the things people had said to us, especially when engaging with politicians and those we need the support of to make change.
This topic really got to us, but in our eyes, it needed to be said.
