With your help, we can offer a warm welcome in a safe space. People can visit our Support and Information Centre in the grounds of the Royal Devon Hospital (Exeter) and at three community hospitals - Okehampton, Ottery St Mary and Tiverton
As well as our welcoming spaces, your donation will help people access a range of support, including financial advice, new and pre-loved wigs and Look Good Feel Better empowerment sessions.
Your gift to FORCE could fund a place on tone of our retreat days for patients with incurable cancer.
Your donation could help provide a patient or someone close to them with one-to-one counselling from a member of our professionally trained team.
Your support could go towards funding complementary therapies for a cancer patient or their carer, treatments like massage, Reiki or reflexology.
A regular gift could help to fund an Information Nurse, who is there to support patients in distress.
“Turning 50 actually saved my life. I was offered a routine mammogram by the NHS and shortly afterwards I become a statistic – the one on two given a cancer diagnosis. I had never been healthier in my life but unknown to me, a tumour that I never felt was growing in my breast and needed treating.
Luckily for me, I already knew that FORCE would be there for me, my family and any friends that were going to be experiencing my diagnosis with me.”
FORCE has been with Ruth every step of the way through chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and ongoing treatment to keep her cancer free.
“FORCE has reinforced my strength to keep going during some of the more bleak moments on the road to wellness and I look forward to accessing their services and to continue to raising funds for the charity.”
