Carole's Path of Pain for Mid Cheshire Hospitals Charity

If you’ve ever had the misfortune to accidentally stand on a piece of Lego then you know what a challenge this will be.

I will be walking barefoot across a path of Lego to money for the Cancer Services Fund.

In my role at Mid Cheshire Hospitals Charity I hear on a daily basis patient's stories and how they have been cared for my the amazing staff at Mid Cheshire Hospitals Foundation Trust.

The Cancer Services fund is used to pay for services, equipment, improvements to the environment & additional comforts which improve the care and experience of local people living with a cancer diagnosis.

A cancer diagnosis can have a huge impact on most patients and their families. Feelings of depression, anxiety, and fear are very common responses to this life-changing experience.

Hypnotherapy is offered for needle phobias, hospital related phobias and anxiety. Without the funding provided by MCH Charity some patients would not be able to tolerate diagnostic or treatment interventions. The service currently supports over 200 patients every year and costs almost £20,000 a year to operate.
