Peter Bonetti launches new cancer centre in Little Aston

We started construction this week on a new CancerPartnersUK centre at Little Aston near Birmingham. And the event was honoured with a visit from footballing legend, Peter Bonetti - one of the original members of England's 1966 World Cup squad.

The new facility will open in February 2011 and will house the latest radiotherapy treatments, including intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and image guided radiation therapy (IGRT). These are the most cutting edge and precise radiotherapy treatments available to patients. The new centre will complement the existing cancer services provided at Spire Little Aston Hospital to provide a fully integrated range of cancer treatments on one site.

This is one of the first independent facilities outside London where patients can have radiotherapy on the same site as their other cancer treatments.

The treatment facilities are part of a joint initiative with Spire Healthcare to provide world-class cancer treatments to patients in the West Midlands.
