We are very proud to announce the opening of the new Oncology Support Centre in Bucharest and we are grateful to be able to offer support through the specialists we have found to people affected by cancer in and around the capital, two and a half years after we inaugurated the Sus Inima House in Bucharest, which offers free accommodation to people who come for radiotherapy and chemotherapy from neighbouring counties,” said Carmen Chindriș, Executive Director of Sus Inima Association.
