There, the dedicated staff on board can provide cancer care for up to 20 patients per day in a more accessible, comfortable and familiar environment. Patients receive the same exceptional clinical standards as in hospital, with added benefits that matter, helping to improve the cancer journey for patients and their loved ones.</p><p> </p><p>Being treated locally saves time and money on travel and parking. It removes the stress of navigating vast hospital sites and the worry of long waits and disrupted days. Instead, patients step into a calm, welcoming environment where they're seen promptly. Many patients also value the sense of camaraderie with other patients from their area, creating a supportive, friendly atmosphere.</p><p> </p><p>The charity's fleet of mobile units currently operates in regions including Gloucestershire, South Wiltshire, Kent, Suffolk, Essex, Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, and Norfolk.
