The Nightingale Cancer Support Centre
Enfield, Greater London (On-site)
Up to £30K per annum

At The Nightingale, we’re a small, local charity with a big impact. Our mission is simple yet
powerful: to improve quality of life by helping individuals and families cope with and come to
terms with a cancer diagnosis.

We understand that cancer support isn’t one-size-fits-all—so neither are our services. From
counselling and complementary therapies to social events that connect like-minded
individuals facing similar challenges, we tailor our support to ensure everyone gets the help

As demand for our services grow year on year, so does our ambition. If you’re looking to
make a meaningful difference locally with a well-loved and respected charity, we’d love to
hear from you.
