Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Sussex Cancer Fund were there to help look after my uncle Bob.

The Sussex Cancer Fund was established in 1981 to work with the NHS to create new and improved facilities providing the best possible cancer care for Sussex. Since then, £3 million has been raised to make the Sussex Cancer Centre more attractive, comfortable and effective.

Unlike many charities, costs are exceptionally low with only a very small percentage spent on administration, almost all money donated to us can be spent directly to benefit our patients.


The Sussex Cancer Fund pays for a range of services and equipment for our patients. These include day-to-day ‘extras’ that make a difficult and stressful experience a little more civilised – the subsidised car park specifically for cancer patients, complementary therapy, free vending machines providing hot fresh drinks for patients, newspapers, magazines, a DVD library for chemotherapy patients and the like. We also pay for equipment, from specialist gowns for breast cancer patients costing £10 but which make a big difference to patients’ experiences, right through to medical equipment costing many thousands. 

We have also funded the systematic refurbishment of the Sussex Cancer center, including building the new chemotherapy suite, and more recently, the patient lounge, reception and garden creating a greatly improved environment for patients.
