What the centre has to offer
Beatson Cancer Charity’s Wellbeing Centre is a unique space in The Beatson and is designed to be a calming environment for patients away from the wards and clinics. Patients can choose to sit back in one of our tranquil lounges to relax and put their feet up whilst taking in the views over the West End of Glasgow.
Our team of centre support staff are on hand to give you a warm welcome and make sure that you get the right support and guide you on how the centre can help.
The centre is located on the 4th floor of the Beatson and is a place where patients can chat with others, socialise with our range of activities, access support available and join in on our exercise and crafting classes.
Coping with cancer is difficult. We are there to support during this vulnerable time. Our expert therapists understand how challenging treatment can be and are here to help if you are anxious, tense or having trouble sleeping.
Beatson Cancer Charity provides a comprehensive range of complementary therapies for inpatients and outpatients at the Wellbeing Centre within The Beatson West Of Scotland Cancer Centre (BWoSCC), on the wards and outpatients within Day case units while they receive their treatments.
