Rotary Club of Cotswold Tyndale is leading a District 1100 wide Club collaboration to raise money in support of our region's Oncology Centre. This is in partnership with the local NHS Charity, which has its' own Big Space Cancer Appeal for the refurbishment of the existing centre, required to cope with the annual 8% increase in patient throughput (which currently stands at 5000 new patients per year). Rotary funds will be specifically targeted at the Centre's 'Focus Centre' which improves the welfare and mental health of patients and their families through provision of holistic services and by signposting to other supporting agencies and charities. The project purpose is to improve the capacity of the Focus Centre through refurbishment, and to improve its effectiveness through additional resources and training. The beneficiaries will be the thousands of patients that live across the region, with an aspiration to develop best practice that can be used in other Oncology Centres.
