Maggie's Cambridge Receives Planning

April 2025

The Maggie's Centre in Cambridge has won planning permission. The purpose-built structure will replace an existing, temporary Maggie’s Centre which, since 2012, has been housed within a converted key worker residential block. 

Maggie’s chief executive Laura Lee said: ‘We've worked closely with Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for many years to ensure people with cancer across the Cambridgeshire area, as well as those who love them, have had free expert support at our interim centre.

‘It is wonderful to now be a step closer to building a centre designed with people living with cancer in mind.’
