New: Watch the Mobile Chemotherapy Unit video
Hope for Tomorrow is a national cancer charity, which helps those with cancer, their families and dependants to cope with the reality of the situation.
Founded by Christine Mills in December 2003 after she lost her husband to cancer, the Charity sets out to alleviate some of the difficulties they incurred during his illness, in particular the harrowing experience of travelling long distances for chemotherapy treatment.
These personal experiences led to what has become the Charities prime focus – mobile chemotherapy units – the first of which is now operational. The concept provides cancer patients local treatment alleviating the need for constant travelling long distances to a main Cancer Centre for Chemotherapy.
Sir Stirling Moss OBE, patron of Hope for Tomorrow, officially unveiled the mobile chemotherapy unit in Cheltenham on Wednesday 14th February 2007.
