Free care packages
We know that preparing for laryngectomy surgery or starting a course of radiotherapy can be an incredibly daunting time. To help ease that transition, Life After Lary offers free care packages to anyone in the UK undergoing these treatments.
These packages are carefully curated by people who have been through the process themselves. They are designed to provide a bit of comfort and some practical essentials to help you during your hospital stay and early recovery at home. While we cannot take away the challenge of the treatment, we want to ensure you know that your community is standing right beside you from day one.
