After a heavy storm, a boy walked along the beach throwing the stranded starfish back into the sea.

A man watching shouted "there are too many of them - it won’t make any difference."

As the boy threw another starfish back into the sea, he smiled and replied "it made a difference to that one!"

How Star Throwers helps people living with cancer...

  • Star Throwers makes information available on the understanding and treatment of cancer and the choices of both conventional and complementary therapies.
  • We provide support by doctors and nurses who understand cancer problems and give time to explain why specific symptoms occur and their management.
  • We provide a place where people with cancer can receive all types of complementary therapies which will produce a sense of well being.
  • We provide a place where cancer patients can feel relaxed in a positive friendly atmosphere and share their experiences with people who are in a similar position to themselves.
  • We provide help to other members of the families of people experiencing cancer who also suffer serious emotional and physical stress looking after their loved ones.
  • We educate school children on the prevention of cancer in general and teach self examination for the early signs of testicular cancer in boys and breast cancer in girls.
  • We raise funds for the development and research of new cancer treatments that concentrate on substances that are less toxic than conventional chemotherapy and already have shown evidence of an anti-cancer effect.
  • Star Throwers runs a Cancer Care Centre at:
    30 Melton Road, Wymondham, Norfolk NR18 0DB
    We are open from Monday to Friday, 10am - 4pm to anyone who feels they or their
    loved ones will benefit (please call first on 01953 423304).
