Let's Face it Appeal

Treating patients with head and neck cancer

 

Broomfield Hospital is the regional centre for head and neck cancer, where patients receive treatment within a specialist unit and are cared for by experts in this field.

 

Medical professionals at Broomfield Hospital head and neck unit know how important it is to provide dedicated facilities for those vulnerable patients undergoing reconstructive surgery. Providing the best treatment in the best surroundings is fundamental to recovery and you can help us.

 

The Let's Face It appeal

 

Cancer or severe trauma to the head and neck brings not only the trauma of requiring major hospital treatment, but the added trial of coping with major changes to the way you look, speak and feel about yourself.

 

The 'Let's Face It' appeal is raising funds to refurbish the existing ward and provide:

 

  • Significant room improvements for greater privacy
    Additional specialised equipment
    Enhanced surroundings for patients
    Professional advice and counselling

 

"Many of our patients will spend weeks, if not months on the ward so it is vital that we provide the best possible environment, suited to their needs.

With your help we can ensure our patients receive the very best care possible."
