The Helen Rollason Cancer Charity is dedicated to championing quality of life for everyone living with or affected by cancer. We are here to support men and women with all types of cancer at all stages; newly diagnosed, throughout and post treatment, as well as their wider support network of family, friends and carers. We do this through the provision of support centres, complementary therapies, information and advice and supporting research and clinical trials.
Our services are delivered free of charge to support cancer patients’ emotional well-being alongside their medical treatment. We focus on offering these services in non-clinical environments to promote a safe, peaceful, relaxing setting across the Essex, London and Hertfordshire regions. The work we do really does make a difference:
“The staff are all very welcoming and supportive. Sitting in the lounge before and after treatment is all part of the experience. Talking to other clients and staff or just sitting having ‘me time’, is all part of the therapy. It is so peaceful and relaxing I do not know what I would have done without the charity”.
“This is a fabulous service, one that is accepting, supportive and a peaceful place. Thank you from the depths of my heart”.
The charity receives no Government or NHS funding and relies on corporate donations, our retail shops, events, grants and its fantastic fundraising supporters to continue services.
If you would like to find out more information about the charity please visit www.helenrollason.org.uk or call 01245 380719.
As well as providing holistic therapies, we also have a number of Support Groups where you can meet and talk to others who understand what you are going through. Helen Rollason Cancer Charity is working with some fantastic organisations to ensure that those touched by cancer are able to access emotional support through a variety of groups, workshops and courses.
The Essex Breast Cancer Support Group offers a chance to meet with others from 7.30pm to 8.30pm, every third Wednesday of the month at the Mid Essex Support Centre in Hatfield Peverel.
