When Chemogift founder Lynne Shipton was diagnosed with breast cancer her thoughts kept going back to the huge impact chemotherapy had on people’s lives and wellbeing. Initially, she worked to raise funds for other charities, but she wanted to do more and she began compiling a list of items needed, both practical and essential, that could be used whilst patients were having chemotherapy. The list quickly became long, and Lynne realised she would need to put all the products into a bag. Chemogiftbags was born - a registered charity which offers a free bag of invaluable products to both ladies and gents in Berkshire. Lynne’s efforts were deservedly recognised this year when she was awarded Organisation Champion of the Year.

AHEAD OF OUR TIME - Living with permanent chemotherapy induced alopecia.
If you are worried that your hair isn't growing back and if you have received Taxotere/Docetaxel and need support, Ahead of Our Time. is a worldwide organisation of cancer patients who have banded together to share emotional support, compare medical research and educate our health care providers. If you are tired of the stares and the dismissive suggestions to “wear a wig”, you will find understanding and, indeed, empowerment among us. Permanent hair loss after chemotherapy for breast cancer is sadly being dismissed, downplayed or ignored by the medical world. We need it to be discussed at all the breast cancer seminars, conferences and included in all literature. Life after cancer matters. Quality of life matters. Patients' rights matter.
