The process from initial appointment through to the procedure was very straight forward and I was pleased with the interaction with all the people involved. I was made to feel comfortable at every stage, the treatment was carried out as described and I am pleased with the outcome.

I contacted Benenden Charitable Trust to request financial support for a long-term medical condition. My circumstances had been further exacerbated by a recent separation, a house move, and financial pressures while caring for two young children.
The charity reviewed my application, provided guidance on the support available, and made a generous financial contribution that helped me get back on my feet.
I will be forever grateful for the help I received when I needed it most. I am especially thankful for the sensitivity, kindness, and compassion shown by everyone I spoke with throughout the process. Their support made a real difference at a very difficult time in my life.

I received great care and service from all the staff and Consultant at the hospital they sorted everything out in a couple of visits as I had the problem for a long time.
I was very anxious on the day of my procedure and scans but the staff and Consultant were all very understanding and were very kind.

Thanks to Benenden I was able to…speedily have tests and advice from an excellent specialist
Thanks to Benenden I was able to arrange an appointment with an approved Specialist, avoiding a long wait in the nhs , and receive all the necessary investigations and follow ups which had lead to a plan of treatment. I am so grateful for this reassuring care and “got things done” which could have been a long wait and a lot of stress.
