For many going through cancer treatment, a common side effect is hair loss, which can be challenging both physically and emotionally. 🫶
Mary is in her third year as a volunteer at the Redcliffe Hospital wig and turban service, which aims to help cancer patients take back some control and guide them through the process of choosing a colour and style that is right for them.
Having lost her own husband of 50 years to cancer at the hospital she now volunteers at, Mary acknowledges how special this service is. 💖
"Its about how we can bring them dignity - for some hair can be so important," Mary said.
"We have around 300 wigs catalogued for patients to choose from - some stick to a wig that represents what they had, or some go the complete opposite and choose something different."
The wig and turban service is free to Redcliffe cancer patients open on Tuesdays and Thursdays by appointment only.
Great service, makes all the difference
We love Mary. Couldn’t do without her. 💕
How amazing Mary. Good on you and Metro North for helping patients with such a great service.

Wonderful of you Mary! Is this real hair, or synthetic hair. I'm thinking of doing the great shave, and donating my hair.
Thank you
