“The shock of a diagnosis can leave people frozen, and feeling absolutely powerless - it can have a huge impact on every aspect of someone’s life. Through their helpline and information services, and world-respected therapy courses, Penny Brohn Cancer Care plays a vital role in complementing medical treatment, helping people with cancer to improve their daily quality of life. What I like about the Bristol Approach, is that it gives people very practical and immediate ways of taking back some control over their lives and taking charge of their emotional, physical and spiritual health.“

"I have long been impressed by the very personal touch that Penny Brohn Cancer Care brings to their important work supporting people with cancer and their families. When coping with the shock and trauma of cancer, people need to be helped by skilled professionals, and often also want to learn about practical ways of helping themselves. This is exactly what the Bristol Approach to cancer care delivers – through the Charity’s teams of doctors, nurses and complementary therapists."

"We are all absolutely petrified of the word cancer. When we hear a doctor say it in relation to ourselves, we completely block out and can't take anything in. These terrors are hugely allayed by the kindness, understanding, warmth and skill of Penny Brohn Cancer Care. I advise any cancer patient who needs help to seek their advice. . ."
