The emotional impact of illness
Our first aim for Lleswyl 2026 was to make everyone aware of the emotional impact of illness and its treatments.
Dr Siân Rees, who is one of Daring to Dream’s Advisory Network, kindly joined us as our guest in the first section of the evening.
Her account of the number of treatments she has worked her way through is startling.
In addition to what she named, there are all the administrative arrangements, blood tests, chasing results, physiotherapy and numerous other appointments, and more.
Living with illness can really become a full-time job.

Siân spoke about the impact on life of living with illness and its treatments.
