CancerWise has extended its thanks to everybody who donated either their time, raffle prizes or their services to enable the valuable work of this charity to continue.

CancerWise is a local registered charity which aspires to be an enabling, compassionate community for people with cancer and those who care for them.

The charity’s drop-in support centre is based in Chichester but it offers support and information to anyone in Arun, West Sussex and South East Hampshire who is concerned about cancer - not just patients but also family members and carers.

CancerWise provides a wide range of services including an internet based cancer information centre, counselling, emotional support, library facilities, regular talks on cancer related subjects, and activity groups.
