NGS Macmillan Cancer Unit taking shape

The Chesterfield Royal Hospital and Macmillan Cancer Support has released a new video taking us inside the new NGS Macmillan Unit as it begins to take shape. The new video provides a sense of the geography of the building and the space the unit will allow.

The £9million development will bring all of the Trust’s cancer services together under one roof to revolutionise the way cancer care is delivered in the hospital. Work started in November 2015 and it’s expected that the building will open soon.

The structure is virtually complete and many of the rooms have been sectioned off as work continues on the building’s internal aspects. The video, which you can watch below, follows some of the Royal Hopsital staff from the Cavendish Suite, where chemotherapy treatments currently take place, around the new unit to get their views along with the project lead and some of those who have helped raise money for the Macmillan appeal.
