Duchy Health Charity has awarded a grant of £11,009.65 towards The Ellen Macarthur Cancer Trust ‘Cornwall Young People Sailing and Outdoor Adventure Trips project’.

The Trust enables young people with cancer, living and treated in Cornwall, to attend a transformational sailing experience in Cowes, Isle of Wight, or to attend an outdoor adventure centre in one of the Trust’s partnership centres located across the country in areas such as the Peak District or Herefordshire.

When cancer treatment ends, that is when the Trust’s work begins.
