| Welcome |
The Sara Lee Trust
 The Sara Lee Trust is an independent charity based in St Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex, set up in 1995 in memory of Sara Lee who died aged 32 of cancer.
Throughout her two years of living with cancer Sara used complementary therapy to enhance her quality of life, ease symptoms and helps maintain her independence to the end of her life. It was her vision that people with cancer like herself, could access complementary therapies without financial implications.
The Trust supports the work of The Sara Lee Centre providing complementary therapy and counselling to people in palliative care. Therapies are provided to people with cancer, motor neurone disease and we have had referrals for people with HIV/AIDS.
 We have two therapy rooms and a counselling room at the centre where people come for their therapy. The Sara Lee Centre also provides a complementary therapy service to people at the local Hospice St Michaels. Our Patron is Professor Karol Sikora who is an internationally respected oncologist.
The Charity is funded by public donations, fundraising, charitable trusts and bequests.

Future Aims
We have done a pilot scheme on Creative healing therapies. This where patients work in a group using paint, clay or sand. There are two facilitators both trained in counselling. We found that patients who did not want touch therapies responded very well in this group and we hope when funds become available to implement this therapy.
Our Sanctuary Days are now being held once a month, we are looking to find sponsors for this day which costs £770.00. This covers the hire of a beautiful house near Battle, transport, lunch for the participants, (we allow for up to eight patients per day) facilitators fees, and creative art materials. If you are interested in sponsoring this please ring the Administrative Office on 01424 445177.
