How we can help your patients
We can help your patients make positive changes to support their treatment and recovery in our centres. We can also support their families and friends.
Our evidence-based psychological and emotional support has been shown to significantly reduce anxiety and depression.
Support centres in NHS hospital grounds
Our centres are within easy reach of the NHS hospitals we work with and are open 9am-5pm Monday to Friday.
Each building has been designed to be a warm and welcoming space because we know that the right environment can have a positive impact on wellbeing.
Your patients can drop in to a centre whenever they want, our timetable of groups and activities is free of charge, with no referral or appointment needed and they can access our support for as long as they need it – please tell them to just come in.
Our staff
The people who work in our centres are qualified professionals, usually with a background in the NHS. They are oncology nurses, radiographers, clinical psychologists and benefits advisors.
We also have sessional staff who lead workshops on things like yoga, nutrition, relaxation and creative writing.
