About Me:
A Maggie's Centre is a place for anyone affected by cancer.
We offer information, psychological and emotional support and practical advice.
Maggie's programme of support is designed to give people the tools they need to cope with the major impact cancer has on their lives.
All our services are free of charge and we work in partnership with local NHS Trusts.
Our buildings are positioned close to major cancer treatment centres, within hospital grounds.
Goals and Objectives
Maggie's Centres help the individual adjust to living with cancer.
We are open to anyone, whether they are diagnosed with cancer, a family member, friend or carer.
We provide high quality, evidence-based psychological support.
Our aim is to help achieve a psychologically healthy adjustment to diagnosis and treatment.
Our programme encourages the individual to feel more in control of their life and gain confidence to live with hope and determination.
Maggie's programme is supportive of medical care and complementary to it.
Our services are free and easily accessible. Our centres are built in close proximity to major cancer hospitals.
We aim to highlight the need for psychological and emotional support within the NHS and to influence health care strategy and practice nationwide.
The domestic scale and imaginative environment of our centres are a key part of our programme. They are places for you to be yourself, not a hospital patient.
