Who we are raising money for

The Charles Clore Macmillan Day Unit based in Newbury our aim is to support people who have a serious and progressive illness who would value support with coping with the physical, emotional and social aspects of their illness.

The Unit provide a prompt assessment, advice on symptom control and regular support from a comprehensive medical team. There is also an opportunity to meet with others who are in similar situations.

They devise individual programmes of activities and therapies, various crafts and creative opportunities which they are very fortunate to have staff and students from Newbury College who facilitate these.

They hope that when attending Charles Clore can provide you with the missing pieces to enable you to have as a fulfilled life as possible. The unit is a cheerful and happy place and visitors are often surprised by this as they expect it to be quite sombre. If the people attending the unit go home with a smile on their face, having had an enjoyable day then we feel we have accomplished our goal. If you would like more information about the service we provide or are interested in becoming a volunteer, then please contact the unit on 01635 273725.
