Tameside Macmillan Unit

Patients can receive treatment at the Tameside Macmillan Unit at Tameside Hospital.

At the unit, we deliver selected systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT) treatments to Christie patients living in or near the Ashton area on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday each week. Patients can also have their bloods taken on these days by appointment only.

The bloods closer to home local blood test service at The Christie lets patients book a blood test at a location that's near where they live. You can book your local blood test using the system below on our bloods closer to home page.

Cancer treatment at the Tameside Macmillan Unit is delivered by Christie SACT nurses.
