Find a centre
In every centre, you’ll find a bright and welcoming space full of the kind of support that people facing cancer need and deserve.
Who was Maggie?
Maggie was a writer, gardener and designer. When she was 47, Maggie was diagnosed with breast cancer and five years later, in May 1993, on a visit to the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh, she was told that it had returned.
After hearing this, Maggie and her husband Charles Jencks were moved to a windowless corridor where they were left to process the news. They discussed the need for somewhere ‘better’ for people with cancer to go, outside of but nearby to the hospital.
Maggie and Charles designed the blueprint for the centres together, enlisting the help of some of their friends from the architectural world. The first Maggie’s opened in Edinburgh in 1996, and they now have centres across the UK and even some abroad.
This year, we are thrilled to announce that our collective efforts have raised an incredible £17,795 for Maggie’s charity so far!
Our team’s dedication and the generosity of our supporters have made this achievement possible through a series of exciting and challenging events.
