A Clatterbridge blood cancer patient is taking on the Amsterdam Marathon with the stem cell donor who helped save his life.

Tom Lewis received a life-saving transplant at Clatterbridge after being diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma while studying for his A-Levels.

His donor, Steve Kemp, was a stranger at the time, but they have now met, become friends, and are preparing to run 26.2 miles together to raise money for charity.

VOICE is the new patient forum from The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre.

We’re looking for patients, their loved ones and carers who have lived-experience of our centres, to join an informal group to tell us more about what we’re doing right and ways we could improve.

It’s part of our commitment to listen, learn and do things better and will be led by senior members of our nursing and Patient Experience Team.

The first meeting will take place at our Liverpool hospital on Thursday 10th September.

Great news to celebrate! Construction work to completely modernise and upgrade The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre’s specialist treatment unit at Halton Hospital is now well underway!

Contractor Krol Corlett started on site on 10 August and has been busy stripping-out and demolishing internal walls.

The unit, which opened in 2009, provides a wide range of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapies and other systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT). It means patients can have their treatment close to home instead of having to travel to our main sites in Liverpool, Wirral and Aintree.

It was initially designed for around 30 patients a day and only treated the most common cancers. Today it sees around 80 patients a day with almost all types of cancer.

Now it’s being completely refurbished and modernised to create additional treatment space, significantly enhance patient experience and adapt to changes in clinical practice. The £1.3m investment is funded by The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre and Clatterbridge Cancer Charity

We were so excited to see behind the scenes this week, now that work is well underway!

Our Halton service isn’t affected by the work. The treatment unit has temporarily relocated to Ward B3, just down the corridor at Halton Hospital, so patients can still have their treatment there.

We are delighted to announce that Victoria Peach has been appointed our new Chief Nurse following a competitive national recruitment process.

Victoria, who will join The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre in September, is currently Interim Director of Integrated Community Health (West) at Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board and brings extensive senior leadership experience.

Victoria qualified as a nurse at the University of Manchester in 1997 and completed her MSc in Practitioner Development in 2004. She also holds a specialist registered district nursing qualification and is passionate about providing integrated care.

After working as a district nurse in Stockport, Victoria became a specialist tissue viability nurse and then a nurse consultant. From 2015 to 2018, she was Head of Professional Practice and Education at Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust.

In 2018, she moved to Wirral as Associate Director of Nursing and Therapies at Cheshire and Wirral Partnership. She was Deputy Chief Nurse at Wirral University Teaching Hospital from 2021 until joining Betsi Cadwaladr in 2024.

Chief Executive Joan Spencer said: “Victoria brings extensive senior nursing experience, a clear focus on quality, and a real passion for supporting nursing and AHP colleagues to do their best work. She brings a wealth of experience across community and acute services, and her commitment to patient-focused, integrated care aligns strongly with our values here at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre. I am very much looking forward to working with her.”

Speaking of her appointment, Victoria Peach said: “I am thrilled to be joining The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre, an organisation that is renowned for outstanding, patient-centred cancer care, its compassionate and innovative culture, and the expertise and professionalism of its staff. People here are ambitious about driving forward cancer care and continually improving outcomes and patient experience.

“I am particularly excited by the opportunity to work alongside nursing and AHP colleagues who make such a difference to people’s lives.”

Our current Chief Nurse, Julie Gray, retires at the end of August.
