Living with Cancer: Food Parcels

Our FEED project is now providing food parcels specifically catered for the dietary requirements of people living with cancer. These parcels are for people home from hospital or receiving treatment in the community.

​The parcels can be delivered by friendly volunteers, who can then chat with the recipients.
