One in two of us will receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime and the impact that it has on both the person facing the diagnosis and their loved one is immense both psychically and mentally.
Thankfully, there are so many amazing charities in Ireland that can be a guiding light to those in the most troubling of times.
One such charity is 'Look Good Feel Better' which hopes to improve the self-esteem of those undergoing cancer treatment through workshops on everything from skin care to make up.
Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Annabel O'Keefe from Look Good Feel Better explained how it's not about vanity, it's about self-care.
