Hearth Place Cancer Support Centre was established in 1997 to serve the community as a support centre for cancer patients and their families. As a drop-in centre in the comfort of a homelike atmosphere, Hearth Place offers peer support, information, a resource centre, wellness programs and an ongoing lecture and discussion series. In 2009, with funding from The Great-West Life and London Life, a new Healing Garden was established and the Official Opening and Dedication Wednesday was September 30th.
