ARC Cancer Support Centre is a registered charity which offers free professional support to men and women affected by cancer and those who care for them, irrespective of where they are being treated or where they live. The support is holistic and complements primary medical treatment with education and psychological care.

The first ARC Centre was set up in Eccles Street in 1993 and I officially opened ARC House in South Circular Road on 23 November. The HSE provided significant funding towards the development of the new premises in South Circular Road.
