The Curtis Palmer Program
Season 5, Episode 28, Sep 29, 2022, 01:14 PM
TRIGGER WARNING: This Podcast deals with terminal illness and trauma some listeners may find it distressing and listener discretion is advised. If you are struggling with your mental health do contact your welfare officer, GP or a MH Charity.
The Curtis Palmer Program is a charity set to help serving and retired police officers get back to a better place after suffering physical or mental injuries. Part of its ethos is always a little further and relies heavily on getting outdoors to improve our physical and mental health.
The charity is helping and supporting John Chart, a former London Firefighter who has MND and Lawrence East (Loz) who has stage 4 Pancreatic cancer. In a powerful and incredibly moving interview they describe living with their diagnosis and the impact a terminal illness has on them and their families.
We also speak with Helen Barnet who suffered three major traumas as a Met police officer and Damien Isherwood (Ish), the CEO of Curtis Palmer who describes the charity, its aim and activities.
