Cancer is a disease that has affected every single one of us. Cork Cancer Care Centre are an amazing organisation who aim to provide support to those going through their own Cancer journey. The idea for this wonderful club was conceived by Ann Dowley Spillane, who was on the journey of cancer. It was following her diagnosis and whilst undergoing treatment that she became acutely aware of the need to support each other with ideas, advice and most importantly, a shoulder to lean  on. And so in February 2011, The Girls Club now known as Cork Cancer Care Centre, which is based on a solid positive approach and positive encouragement, was born!

They provide services such as a free wig bank, counselling, knit and natter, and an outreach programme amongst many others.
