Some of our volunteers have been down to The Woodlands Gallery in Pembury and thoroughly enjoyed looking at the beautiful artwork on display. 🎨

Pop along to browse and buy work from 12 talented local artists, and enjoy a slice of their delicious lemon drizzle cake!

The exhibition runs from 5th–7th June and 11th–21st June, and each year kindly supports Pickering, for which we are incredibly grateful.

This week is Volunteers' Week 💛

It's a chance to celebrate and say thank you to the incredible people who give their time to help others.

To all of our wonderful volunteers — thank you. Whether you help out at events, provide treatments, welcome visitors, make tea and coffee, or simply offer a listening ear, your support means so much.

Your kindness, compassion, and dedication help make Pickering the welcoming place it is, and we couldn't do what we do without you.

Thank you for everything you do.

A New Chair for The Pickering Cancer Drop-In Centre

After six years as Chair of the Board of Trustees, and ten years as a Trustee, David Bartholomew has passed on the baton to Danielle Friend, who becomes the new Chair of The Pickering Cancer Drop-In Centre.

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to David for his dedication, support, and volunteering over the past decade. His contribution to Pickering has helped shape and support the Centre through many important years.

We would also like to thank Danielle for taking on the role of Chair as Pickering enters an exciting new chapter.

Danielle said:

“I have some very big boots to fill as Chair of Pickering.

I am enormously proud to take on the responsibility of being Chair of the Pickering Board. The charity is close to my heart, as I lost a dear friend to cancer in 2022, who cared a lot about the charity, even before she became ill. To be given the opportunity to shape the future of the charity as Chair is nothing short of a privilege.”

We look forward to supporting Danielle in her new role.
