Ever wondered what goes on in your local Maggie’s Centre? Well now is your chance to find out! All Maggie’s Centres – including Maggie’s Edinburgh at the Western General – will now host weekly Maggie’s Welcome Experiences.
Anyone interested in Maggie’s – or who is interested in supporting Maggie’s – can simply drop in to experiences a typical Maggie’s welcome, have a look around our unique centres and speak to our fundraising teams.
It will also be an opportunity to hear first hand, from our inspirational centre users, how Maggie’s has helped give them the clarity they need to begin to make a diagnosis of cancer more manageable within a community of people who have been through or are going though the same thing.
Maggie’s Edinburgh fundraiser Marion Taylor said: “Everyone at Maggie’s is incredibly excited about our new Maggie’s Welcome Experience. We are aware that it can sometimes be difficult for people to fully appreciate what a Maggie’s Centre is like until it has been experienced first hand. Now anyone can simply pop in during our welcome event to get a sense of Maggie’s special atmosphere and to gain an understanding of what a Maggie’s welcome is all about.”
Anyone interested in coming along to visit our fantastic Maggie’s Edinburgh at Western General Hospital just pop in between 4.30 – 5.30pm on Thursdays and we will have the kettle ready to welcome you – as always in Maggie’s teas, coffees and refreshments will be available!
