BRAND new . . . (from left) Julie, lead radiographer; Pat Lawrence, radiotherapy manager; and Dave Davies, project manager; celebrate the naming of the unit.
THE final touches are being made to the Christie Hospital’s pioneering new £17m radiotherapy centre which is set to open in Oldham next month.
A proud Julie Davies, who will head the service when it takes its first patients in less than three weeks’ time, helped fix a shiny new sign on the building.
It will open only 12 months after the Chronicle’s £100,000 Christie’s at Oldham appeal began, and signals a mammoth step forward in cancer care for the borough.
