Children's Cancer Centre

In response to an appeal made in 1989 by the Foundation for the building of a children's cancer centre, a donor came forward to help us realize this aspiration.

The Lady Pao Children's Cancer Centre, opened in 1995, is located within the premises of the Prince of Wales Hospital as part of the Sir Yue-kong Pao Centre for Cancer.

The Foundation is responsible for the patient-friendly design and furnishing of this centre, and purchases equipment on a recurrent basis, so that children with cancer can receive specialist treatment in a comfortable and loving environment.

This Centre is also the Foundation's base at the Prince of Wales Hospital from which we deliver our important patient service programme, including counselling, playwork and play therapy. Two family counsellors and one hospital play specialist of the Foundation are permanently stationed at the Centre.
