The Chemogiftbags' story started in October 2013 when its founder, Lynne Shipton, was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Research showed that no charities provided for patients’ physical needs, so a plan was formed to offer a free bag of invaluable products to both men and women in Berkshire who are undergoing chemotherapy treatment.
Chemogiftbags has been described by those who have received one as a ‘hug in a bag’, a bag that goes on forever and ‘a bag that gives insight into a Chemotherapy journey’.
Chemogiftbags rely entirely on donations, not just financial but also the essential products used in their gift bags.
