Wish List

We hope you will support our 2006/07 'Wish List' of projects and medical equipment needs to benefit our cancer patients. Through the generosity of our many fundraisers and patrons, we hope to fund £365,000 of supplementary medical equipment and patient comfort needs during this financial year. These items would not normally be available within NHS budgets and we are indebted to all those who make these purchases possible throughout the year. Please click here to view the short list or contact us if you require further information about any project.  Our cancer patients will benefit greatly from your generosity. THANK YOU
