Kind things people have said about us

As someone who has been supported by the comforting attentions of Charis Cancer Care, I feel overwhelmed by the selfless generosity of the individuals and groups who give to Charis so freely for the benefit of others who they will probably never know. I’m sure I’ll reflect the opinion of myself and many others in saying thank you to each and everyone involved. No act of kindness is ever wasted!

Family isn’t always about blood, it can be about those that want you and are there for you when you need help and support. I joined the Charis family back in July, there is a comforting, helping hand when I need it. The experience has been providential and continues to be an inspiration to me: I thank the day I visited these wonderful people at Charis Cancer Care

I would like to thank everyone at Charis for all they have done for Jennifer and for me. Your expertise, understanding, support, advice and guidance has been so beneficial.

Charis is one of the very few places where I can relax and “lay my burdens down”. It is as if all anxiety, worry and fear are left outside and the creative spirit in Charis is able to re-create a new person. A person who can live unfettered and free, setting cancer aside for a while.
