Cancer Care Parcel

After Dr Shara Cohen was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2013 she found there was very little time for her, or her family, to just relax, take it all in and to give herself ‘me’ time.

With all the appointments, liaising with work, telling the people who needed to be told…… there was little time to digest what was happening, research the practicalities or to just relax

So she set up Cancer Care Parcel to take some of the worry way from those affected by cancer.

Our team
