Our vision

Maggie's unique model of psychosocial support transforms the way that people live with cancer. We want everyone in the UK who is affected by cancer to have access to our high quality, evidence based psychological, emotional and informational support.

We are working to create a network of cancer caring centres across the UK to deliver our community based cancer support programme.


Our purpose

The Maggie Keswick Jencks Cancer Caring Centres Trust was founded by Maggie Keswick Jencks in 1995 to provide support for people affected by cancer, their families, carers and friends to empower people to live with, through and beyond cancer.
