Our oncology unit is one of only 12 regional cancer centres in the UK, serving a population of around 1.7 million people.

We are a leader in cancer research and treatment development. Up to 500 patients each year take part in national and international trials, giving them access to new drugs before they become widely available.

We are also well supported by the Macmillan Cancer Information and Support Centre, within the hospital.

This is a safe and welcoming environment for people affected by cancer. It gives people with cancer, as well as their families, friends and carers, access to support, information and practical help. It is also an opportunity simply to talk.
