The New Year 2025 is approaching, and some people use this time of year as a reflection tool and a chance to look back at the past year and set goals and resolutions for the months ahead. We thought we would create a dedicated space where people can share any of the following:

  • Share what you are looking forward to in 2025
  • Share something you are grateful for this year
  • Post a hopeful message to others for the new year

The Online Community team would like to wish everyone all the best for 2025. We are committed to keeping the Online Community a safe and supportive space for people affected by cancer to get support. If you need any help using the site, please email community@macmillan.org.uk or send a private message to the Moderator account.

Best wishes,
