PENNY BROHN UK

Established 40 years ago, Penny Brohn UK is there to support people living with cancer. As CEO Laura Kerby told us: ‘We help people calm their panicked minds because they face the prospect of premature death. We support them emotionally to tell their friends and family.’

As she explains, Penny Brohn offers alternative remedies to help relieve the side effects of treatments: ‘We help boost patients’ immune systems by giving them knowledge about exercise, nutrition, art, dance and mindfulness. And we lift their spirits by offering human connection with people who are struggling the same way. With one in two people getting diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, I’m going to be bold and say that you will want Penny Brohn in your world, whether you have a cancer diagnosis or you’re supporting someone else who does.’
