Surrey Launches Two New Cancer Support Facilities

The Royal Surrey Cancer Centre will be reopened by Paralympic gold medallist Erin Kennedy following a £6m refurbishment aimed at expanding clinical space and improving early diagnosis and treatment options. In parallel, Ashford and St Peter's Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has begun construction on a £1.9m Macmillan Cancer Support Centre, which will offer non-clinical support like counselling and therapies for cancer patients. This facility is the first of its kind in North West Surrey and aims to provide a holistic approach to cancer care. The establishment of both centers reflects a growing commitment to enhance cancer treatment and support services in the region. The Royal Surrey is set to become one of Europe’s leading surgical centers as part of a larger development project. With these initiatives, local health authorities aim to improve access and quality of care for cancer patients.
