The Lewis Foundation Charity is a non-profit organization that aims to bring comfort +support to adult cancer patients.
Happy Friday From The Lewis Foundation!
Over the last week we have been able to provide our gifts to Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - Addenbrooke's Hospital - CUH Cancer Support Service, United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust - ULHT and Northampton General Hospital. This means 625 gifts in total will be making their way over the next few weeks to adult cancer patients in those hospitals - day patients and inpatients.
We are so grateful to the hospital staff and volunteers who support us with the storage and hand out of these gifts direct to the patients ensuring they go our daily. We could not do this without your support.
Help us by being a part of our mission to make a difference.
Donate a gift, one gift pack costs ￡3.60 - https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/20642?
Join our free upcoming pamper events for cancer patients and their carers
"It was lovely to meet you, thank you for organising the event today. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I really enjoyed it and made me feel like me for the first time in months. I can't remember the last time I spent any time on me. It was good to meet people in a similar situation and share stories."

Natwest Northampton team volunteer to support The Lewis Foundation
We have been pleased to welcome NatWest on series of volunteer days to support our charity, which was arranged by Curtis from our team.
A number of members from the Northampton branch have been volunteering their time. They have been preparing the items, picking the items we need from our storeroom and packaging them into gift packs ready for cancer patients in hospital.
Everyone has got stuck in and helped us to get everything ready that we need to do what we love, which is making people smile.
We are proud to work alongside our Corporate Partners who not only invest funds but also their time, which together means our gift packs make their way to adult cancer patients in hospital.
If you are a business who wants to find out about working in partnership with The Lewis Foundation to make a difference to the lives of those diagnosed with cancer in the community, get in touch: [email protected]
Time For You Northampton raises funds for The Lewis Foundation
A huge thank you to Time For You Northampton Ltd who recently made donation to be a part of supporting the work we do to help adult cancer patient in hospital.
The Lewis Foundation was selected due to franchisees within the next work having personal experiences of cancer.
At their AGM event in December, 150 franchisees donated to make a difference to our cause, which was match funded by the Time For You Ltd. The funds we donated will directly fund over 460 free gift bags specially designed for adults undergoing cancer treatment in Northamptonshire and the Midlands region.
Each bag gifted will provide comfort and support to those that need it the most.
Donations like this make the work we do possible and we could not do it without support like this – thank you!!
