Story
The Royal Surrey Cancer centre is now the fourth biggest centre in the UK for cancer services and this has a direct effect on the services provided by the Fountain Centre. Being the main wellbeing service provider, the Fountain Centre cancer charity needs to continue to expand with the increased patient numbers coming through the hospital.
Prior to the expansion works, our garden was well used by our patients, their families and staff. In its current state, it is not useable. With an ever increasing demand on our services, being able to have a multifunctional outdoor space will allow us to continue to support as many patients that we can.
Our new plans for the rejuvenation of our Wellbeing garden will include installing a new decking area providing a multifunctional space, creating small areas for patients to sit with their families. We will also be updating the access to the garden to be wheelchair friendly which it currently isn’t. It is important that our outdoor space can be used by everyone that visits us.
