Maggie's - Architecture of Hope | Sarah Beard | TEDxSwansea

A cancer diagnosis can hit you like a punch in the stomach.

Sarah Beard shares the story of Maggie Keswick Jencks who, despite her own battle with a form of the disease, has created a positive legacy of cancer care for patients and their families worldwide. Maggie has given many people the gift of hope, making them not lose the joy of living in the fear of dying. Sarah Beard is the Business Development Director and executive member at Maggie’s, a fast-growing charitable organisation that provides emotional, practical and social support to anyone with cancer, and their family and friends.

Sarah is a Clore Social Leadership Fellow 2015. Previously, she was Assistant Divisional Manager for Cancer and Tertiary at Swansea NHS Trust (now known as Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board), and prior to that managed the South West Wales Cancer Centre, also at Swansea NHS Trust. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
