We will be raising funds for ‘Maggie’s. In May 1993, Maggie Keswick Jencks was told that her breast cancer had returned and was given two to three months to live. She joined an advanced chemotherapy trial and lived for another 18 months. During that time, she and her husband Charles Jencks worked closely with her medical team, which included oncology nurse, Laura Lee, now Maggie’s Chief Executive, to develop a new approach to cancer care. In order to live more positively with cancer, Maggie and Charles believed you needed information that would allow you to be an informed participant in your medical treatment, stress-reducing strategies, psychological support and the opportunity to meet other people in similar circumstances in a relaxed domestic atmosphere. In November 1996, the first Maggie’s Centre opened in Edinburgh and what Maggie had planned became a reality. There are two centres in London at Charing Cross Hospital, W6 and the Cancerkin Centre, NW3. Two more are planned at The Royal Marsden Hospital & St Bartholomew's Hospital.Chris Martin
