Your Stories

Give a life-changing donation

When you donate to Wessex Cancer Trust you’re changing the lives of people like Alyson.

We recognise that everyone’s experience is unique and cancer affects every area of life, for both the person living with cancer and their loved ones. Support, both emotional and physical, is at the heart of everything we do. Our door is always open. Living with cancer is difficult, it can feel isolating and result in a loss of confidence. We are a community of local people who understand how you feel and will be right by your side.

By making a regular or a one-off donation, you’re supporting the lives of thousands of local people affected by cancer.

Thank you for supporting your local community.
