A very important campaign has been launched to encourage the Government to recognise the severe difficulties some Head and Neck Cancer patients undergo in the care of their oral health before, during and after treatment. This campaign is arguing for all of these patients to be exempt from dental charges, something we should all support in my opinion. Here is a link to the website to add your name to the lobby group. Click on Campaign for free dental care I hope many of you will do so.
Great news for Queen Victoria Hospital
Yes, it's finally happened. The much anticipated opening of the Macmillan Cancer Support information and drop-in centre has finally become a reality.
The Centre is packed with absolutely every single piece of literature one could possibly require, but not only that. It is staffed by the most charming and helpful of support nurses in the form of Beth Garcia. There is also an ultra modern private consulting room, which is fully sound proofed and equipped with tea and coffee etc to provide some refreshment. The Centre is open to anyone who is affected by cancer, not just patients but, relatives, carers, and friends as well. The direct number for the Centre is 01342 414369 and it is open Monday-Fiday from 10-4pm except bank holidays.
