Realising they could help more local people similarly a ected, the charity was born. Run by a team of volunteers, força - strength against cancer is a UK-registered charity based in Lymington that is dedicated to raising funds to provide help for local people receiving cancer treatment, and to raise awareness of how lifestyle and diet can help and support those living with cancer. Strength… by força provides practical help for individuals experiencing di culties living with cancer, such as contributions to childcare costs, cleaning and items that ease living with cancer. Since 2016 the Nourish… by força project has funded the provision of healthy, nutritious meals for people undergoing cancer treatment (and their families) at Lymington New Forest Hospital and at Oakhaven’s Day Hospice. is practical support means that patients don’t need to think about cooking or what to eat when they are having treatment. And since 2019 the Support… by força project has funded and supplied supportive compression bras to those who have undergone breast surgery related to a cancer diagnosis at two local hospitals, with over 450 bras provided to date. e charity has a number of new initiatives in the pipeline and is keen to hear from local businesses looking for sponsorship opportunities.
