How Star Throwers helps people in East Anglia 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:
