On 4th April 2020 we were due to begin the refurbishment of the large balcony in the Chemotherapy suite at Leicester Royal Infirmary. This was obviously not possible due to Covid-19 restrictions which was incredibly disappointing for all involved. However, we were able to complete the refurbishment just a few weeks later and the transformation was fantastic.

It is so important for patients receiving chemotherapy treatment to have a space to relax during their treatment visits. This is why we wanted to refurbish the small balcony outside the chemotherapy suite at Leicester Royal Infirmary. Patients now have a quiet place to go away from the waiting room, treatment room and ward areas.

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported this project and made it possible. We would also like to thank former Leicester Tigers player Niall Morris for officially opening the room for us.
