Princess of Wales congratulates cancer patient for finishing treatment

The princess praised the hospital’s holistic care and encouraged a patient finishing chemotherapy as The Christie treats more than 60,000 people a year.

  • Princess Kate visited The Christie hospital in Manchester, joining 30-year-old patient Claire Lorente as she rang the 'end of treatment bell' to mark the end of her cancer treatment in front of family and staff.
  • The Christie serves more than 60,000 patients annually from Greater Manchester, offering holistic therapies including art classes and well-being gardens free of charge to support patients and carers throughout their cancer journey.
  • Kate joined an art session with six patients, noting that finding ways to express fear in a clinical setting is 'really important' for emotional recovery; resident artist Patricia Mountfield described the process as isolating for some.
  • Patient Andi called the hospital community a 'lifeline,' while Roger Spencer, chief executive of The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, said it was an 'honour' to demonstrate their person-centered approach focusing on individual care beyond diagnosis.
  • Following the visit, Kate posted on social media that meeting patients was a 'powerful reminder that healing is about so much more than treatment alone,' thanking staff for their 'compassion, creativity and dedication.
