Systemic-Anti Cancer Pre-Treatment information and video for patients

We have created this video to help inform patients about the Macmillan Renton Unit (MRU) team who are here to support you through your treatments with us.

You can play the video on the website page or select the YouTube button to watch the video on YouTube.

You will also be able to access a presentation, information about our hospital and transport should you require this, which is available direct from our team during your appointments. 

Please feel free to ask us any questions or for further information if needed.

Parking and transport

There is a site map available on the Trust’s website which shows the location of the Macmillan Renton Unit (MRU) and car parking.

Please be aware that there are only limited parking spaces in the MRU car park and these are reserved for patients who are receiving treatment and are driving themselves. There is a drop-off point for other patients.
