Live Online Video classes cover simple techniques to look after your skin, hair, body and mind so that you can feel stronger and face cancer with confidence. For anyone with a diagnosis for any type of cancer at any stage.
Feel Better Live Online Video classes are for women and men with any type of cancer at any stage. These free classes provide an opportunity to learn some practical tips and to connect in a convenient way with others who may be experiencing something similar.
These live online classes are ideal for those who may have difficulty getting to a local class, or don’t have one close by, or can only attend in the evening.
Some of the classes cover new information not covered in a local class, and so are a great way for those who have previously attended a class to keep gaining practical advice and tips as you progress through your cancer treatment and recovery.
They are also good for those who have already attended a class and would like a refresher on the tips given. Or if you are feeling a bit unsure of what to expect and would like a taster in the comfort of your own home.
What the Classes Cover
Using easy to use live video chat (like Skype or Facetime), you will be connected with a trained Feel Better class facilitator, who will share advice and practical tips with a small group of participants (normally 6-10 people) who are all joining via video. The class is interactive so you will be able to ask questions and connect with others in a similar situation.
The informal relaxed class can be done from the comfort and privacy of your home, office, or other convenient setting.
The one hour classes cover a variety of different topics, that you can sign up for as you need during and after your treatment, so that you can feel stronger and face cancer with confidence. You can sign up to participate in as many of the live online video class as you like.
Note: we can only provide one makeup & skincare kit per year, whilst undergoing treatment
Keep checking the schedule as more new classes are added…

You will receive a Confidence pack filled with a specially selected range of donated skincare and makeup products suited to your skin tone, which is packed based on the information in your registration form.
Please note: we will try to select a good match foundation but may not always be the perfect shade.
Wigs & Headwear

Intro to Wigs

For Men
Each class has a specially selected guest speaker, to listen and have a chat with. This maybe someone from the professional sporting arena, or someone with an inspiring story to tell, or just an expert who can give you more advice to help you feel more like you.
There is also practical tips on caring for your skin, hair and body following the changes experienced with cancer.
a computer or tablet with a camera or webcam is ideal, as these have a larger screen, but a smart phone can also be used
a good internet connection
audio via device speaker or separate speaker.
For the Skincare & Makeup class: we suggest, if you have available, a mirror, make up applicators, brushes or sponges, and cotton wool ready.

Yes it is! Once you have registered, you will receive via email instructions and a link on how to join the video class. It is simple – just a few easy steps. You can test and practice in advance.
The class facilitator should be able to help with most issues. It is recommended that you join a test Zoom meeting to familiarise yourself with the Zoom software and test your video, microphone and speakers, before joining the online class. You can join a test Zoom meeting by clicking on this link and following the instructions: https://zoom.us/test
We are aware connectivity may be affected in certain areas, but Zoom meetings have been successfully run all over New Zealand. To improve the internet connection, we recommend that you locate yourself close to your wifi router, use a cable if you have one, and ensure you or any members of your household are not over using the internet at the same time (e.g. streaming videos).
This is not a problem. When you open the link in your confirmation email for the first time, the Zoom application software will download automatically. Just follow the simple instructions on screen. We suggest you do this in advance of the meeting.
You should receive a confirmation email very shortly after registering on our website. If you cannot find in your in-box, please check your junk or spam folder. If you locate our email in a junk folder, then we recommend you add our email address to your contacts or safe senders list so you can receive future notifications direct into your inbox. If you still cannot find your confirmation email, then please call our helpline on 0800 865 432 or email us at info@lgfb.co.nz.
It is nice for the facilitator and participants to see each other, to build a connection. However we understand you may prefer not to be seen and this is fine. You can turn off your video camera at the start of the class, or any time during the class. There is an icon at the bottom of your screen to do this, or you can ask the facilitator.
