Our Chemo Kits are designed specifically to help people undergoing chemotherapy. They contain items to offset some of the unpleasant side effects of treatment, like cold hands and feet, nausea, and sensitive teeth.
Thick, Toasty Warm Socks
People undergoing treatment can experience very cold extremities. These thick, soft bed socks are included to warm them up, and make them feel more cosy and comfortable.
Sherbet Lemon Sweets
People undergoing chemotherapy treatment often experience a dry mouth and an unpleasant metallic taste, and these are a popular way to alleviate this symptom.
Sensitive Toothpaste
Many chemotherapy patients suffer from sensitive teeth, so as well as freshening their mouth and taking away unpleasant tastes, this can help reduce the painful sensitivity.
Anti-Bacterial Hand Gel
During treatment, immune systems can be weakened, so taking steps to kill germs is important.
Notebook and Pen
Keeping track of hospital visits and doctors appointments can be a challenge, so a small notebook and pen are just what’s needed to keep on top of it all.
Alcohol-Free Mouthwash
This can help to alleviate the experience of an unpleasant metallic taste, and help to feel fresher.
Packet of Tissues
Chemotherapy can be emotionally draining. A packet of tissues is included for when times are tough for patients and their families.
Sleep Mask
Good sleep is always important, but no more so than when someone’s unwell. A sleep mask helps to block out any unwanted light on a hospital ward.
Hand Cream
Dry skin is a common side effect of chemotherapy, both during and after treatment. A small, unscented hand cream is included to soothe dry and chapped hands.
Lip Balm
A moisturising lip balm is included to soothe chapped lips, which can be a side effect of cancer treatments.
Ginger Tea Bags
Nausea is one of the most common side effects of cancer treatment, and this is a healthy way to soothe the discomfort. Caffeine-free teas are relaxing and don’t interfere with much-needed sleep.
Canvas Drawstring Bag
All items arrive in a handy drawstring bag, which is perfect for carrying all the essentials.
