Someone Like Me Cancer app analytics for October 30

Someone Like Me is Ireland’s first dedicated cancer peer support and resource app for people affected by cancer. Founded by breast cancer survivor Vanessa Mooney, the app was built around one simple belief - that talking to someone who truly understands what you are going through can make all the difference.
