Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Wallace Cancer Care joined forces with Maggie's Centres under a shared philosophy of helping people with cancer, to become Maggie's Wallace. Located in the grounds of major NHS cancer hospitals, Maggie's Centres are places that can give the extra emotional, practical and social support that people with cancer need. Please visit www.maggiescentres.org for more information.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have set this up so that if you are thinking (very kindly!) of giving me a birthday or Christmas present, you might consider giving a very small donation to one of the charities here.  This page is for Wallace Cancer Care, which provides a really, really useful service for cancer patients in the Cambridge area, and their families. It is very similar to the better-known Maggie Centres - it has a drop-in room in Addenbrookes Hospital, which is a place of refuge when you need help understanding what you have been told, or just need to escape from the clinic for a while.  It also has a beautiful and tranquil house and garden just a few minutes walk from the oncology clinic, where you can find peace and quiet, and a range of therapies and support groups. I help as a volunteer in their garden, doing battle with the ivy and the squirrels, to keep it tidy and not too "kempt"!

If you would prefer to give to a national charity, please go to my other page, for Marie Curie. http://www.justgiving.com/Penny-Longland
