Story

The Holistic Cancer Centre We are a Nurse-Led Therapeutic Cancer Support centre for people who have a cancer diagnosis. We are here for you and your family whenever you need us, during or after your treatment.

We are based on the Wirral, and we welcome people from all over the Northwest.

We offer a wide array of complementary therapies all under one roof. These include counselling, nutritional awareness and relaxation therapies such as mindfulness and meditation, as well as reiki, acupuncture and craft. You can also enjoy something more active like yoga or tai chi or simply sit down with one of our team of nurses and volunteers for a cup of tea and a chat.

Here's what Jennie Mealor, a MacMillan Breast Care Specialist Nurse who is familiar with our work.

"The Holistic Cancer Centre has always been an excellent avenue for additional support for patients who have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Here at the Wirral Breast Unit, we utilise the services of the Holistic Centre by being able to sign post patients for various holistic treatments. The feedback we receive from our patients having attended the Centre is always excellent. We will refer patients throughout their treatment trajectory. It can be particularly effective following initial diagnosis as a way of enabling coping mechanisms and increasing health and wellbeing whilst living beyond cancer. Currently we have limited access to counselling services and therefore being able to refer in for specialised support will benefit numerous patients whilst they navigate through a distressing time. We would like to thank The Holistic Cancer Centre for all the ongoing support and care they give to our patients."
