Welcome to the H.U.G Website!
Welcome to the H.U.G. (Haematology / Oncology United Group), Swindon Website.
The group is a self-help and support group, which was started late in 2003 by a Haematology patient, who thought that there was a need for a forum to provide patients with information, to enable them to comment on hospital services and to work towards improving the environment for patients. The information encompassed not only medical conditions, but also related subjects, such as benefits, complimentary therapies, relaxation etc. It also allowed patients to try to “get things done” about hospital services. For example catering, cleanliness, Patientline and transport services have received our attention.
We get together both at the hospital and in a local hostelry, for informative, interesting and thought-provoking discussions. Forthcoming dates of get-togethers are listed on this site.
With plenty more photos and updates to come.
Take a look at the Dates for Future Get-togethers, HUG Mission, Membership, Magazines, Photo Galleries and Useful Contacts Pages.
