“The connection to the cosmos and contacts between East and West – two motives that Maggie and I shared – are in the design. I hope
she would have liked it.”

Welcome to Maggie’s South West Wales

Maggie's South West Wales replaces interim service on the site of Swansea's Singleton Hospital

Maggie's is delighted to open its first purpose built centre in Wales. Maggie's South West Wales, located beside the Singleton Hospital in Swansea is set to provide anybody affected by cancer with support that complements the treatment provided by the hospital.

Maggie's South West Wales' position next to the South West Wales Cancer Centre allows it to support the South West Wales Cancer Network. This region currently sees more than 3,000 new cases of cancer of diagnosed each year.

 

We are open Monday to Friday, 9.00am to 5pm for information, psychological and emotional support and benefits advice. We have a clinical psychologist, a cancer support specialist and a benefits advisor on hand for drop-in and pre-booked appointments and courses. To see what courses and sessions we offer have a look at our timetable.

If you are affected by cancer please drop in to see us at our centre beside Singleton Hospital, Sketty Lane, or phone 01792 200000. For information about how to get to the centre see our map and directions.

Building our new centre

Situated next to the South West Wales Cancer Centre at Singleton Hospital, Maggie’s will serve people living within the South West Wales Cancer Network.

The network covers approximately 900,000 people within the regions of Aberystwyth, Haverfordwest, Swansea, Powys, Carmarthen, Llanelli, Neath Port Talbot and Bridgend. In this area, there are over 3,000 new cases of cancer a year and 20,000 people living with cancer.

Uniquely, Maggie’s South West Wales will be the first centre to collaborate with the cancer genetics service to offer information and practical support to people who are at risk of cancer, based on family history.

Maggie's South West Wales forms part of the Joy of Living campaign: we are working towards raising £3 million for this centre. We need your support to help build Maggie’s.
