information VIDEOs

It can feel quite  daunting coming to the radiotherapy department for the first time. We wanted to make sure that patients had access to as much information as possible. 


We talked to patients about what was important for them to know before their first appointment. Things like how to get there, where to park, what happens if I am later, were all really important. 


As well as what to expect during pre-treatment appointments and how is the radiotherapy delivered. 


If you or someone you care about is coming for radiotherapy at one of our centres, watch our videos below so you know what will happen when you come to the department.

Respire website

relaxation and breath hold Techniques

The Respire website contains a series of resources developed from a partnership between healthcare professionals and patient representatives. 


The resources are designed for patients who have been referred for radiotherapy to the breast or chest wall following a breast cancer diagnosis. 


In particular, the aim of the resources is to help patients who have been diagnosed with cancer in their breast for whom it may be beneficial to learn how to hold their breath for a short time during radiotherapy.
