Big thanks to the Northampton Prostate Cancer Support Group for inviting The Lewis Foundation to speak to their members about our mission to support adult cancer patients in hospitals. Lee Lewis Co-Founder of the charity shared why our charity started, its growth and the impact it's making.
In a wonderful gesture of kindness, they organised a gift collection for items needed for our gift packs, resulting in a large donation of goodies. It's fantastic to witness charities supporting each other in this way. Thank you for the warm welcome and for contributing to improving the lives of those diagnosed cancer.
