THE main reception at a recently opened £26 million cancer centre has been named ‘The Proseal Reception’ after the tray sealing firm’s donation towards the construction of the facility.
The Christie at Macclesfield provides localised cancer care to patients, delivering 12,500 radiotherapy treatments and 6,800 chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and hormonal treatments each year.
Proseal contributed £1 million towards the build of the two-storey building.
“In a short space of time, The Christie at Macclesfield has made such a difference to hundreds of patients and their families, all thanks to the brilliant team of healthcare professionals who are committed to delivering the very highest standard of care for our patients,” said Anna McIntosh, major relationship development manager for The Christie charity.
“We could not have opened the Macclesfield facility without the support from companies like Proseal, and we’re so grateful for every donation we received from our corporate partners, workplace fundraising, grants from trusts and the local community.”
Jon Garner, packaging group president at Proseal, added, “We are unbelievably proud to support The Christie cancer centre which is such a life-changing resource to patients from East Cheshire and the surrounding areas. We’re honoured to have the main reception named after us and delighted to hear of the enormous impact The Christie at Macclesfield continues to have on our local community, providing state-of-the-art treatment on our doorstep.”
