    About the Lymphoedema service

    Our small physio/nurse-led team manage patients with lymphoedema that has developed as a result of cancer and its treatments. Most patients are seen as out-patients, some with more advanced disease are seen in the community or in the Sue Ryder Duchess of Kent Hospice in Reading where we are based. We also see patients in Newbury and Wokingham. We are the only NHS-commissioned lymphoedema service in Berkshire West seeing around 450 patients a year.

    Sue Ryder is here to make sure everyone approaching the end of their life or living with grief can access the support they need. There is no one size fits all when it comes to how we cope and the help we need, but with our support, no one has to face dying or grief alone. We are there when it matters.
