Amanda Procter

Centre:

Maggie's, Yorkshire

Position:

Centre Head

I look after the running of the centre and make sure my team and I are providing the best possible cancer support.

I have over 20 years’ experience as a nurse. I specialised in Cancer Nursing as an Upper Gastrointestinal Clinical Nurse Specialist, and I became the Lead Cancer Nurse for a busy Teaching Hospital. I joined Maggie’s when the centre opened in Yorkshire in 2019.

I’m here to listen, to help you talk things over and to find the information and support that’s right for you and your family.

Andrew Burnard

Centre:

Maggie's, Yorkshire

Position:

Counselling Psychologist

I have been a Counselling Psychologist for more than 15 years, and I joined Maggie’s Yorkshire in 2021.

I can help if things are getting on top of you, if you're scared, worried or feeling down.

We can talk about things in a safe and supportive space, and you can see me in private, in a group or with your family.

My background is as a Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) in oncology. I have worked as a CNS in several tumour areas, including prostate, renal, bladder and penile, and more recently as a melanoma and skin cancer specialist. I joined Maggie’s Yorkshire when it opened in 2019.

I give one-to-one information and support and will guide you through the parts of our support that are most appropriate to you. I also run many of our support groups, workshops, and courses.

I’m here to listen – just come in.

My background is as a registered Adult Nurse. I previously worked in Intensive Care, caring for people with life-threatening illnesses, before moving into Oncology and becoming a Lower Gastrointestinal Clinical Nurse Specialist. Following this, I became a Specialist Screening Practitioner, working for the national Bowel Cancer Screening Programme. I joined Maggie’s Yorkshire in January 2022.

I give one-to-one information and support and will guide you through the parts of our support that are most appropriate to you. I also run many of our support groups, workshops, and courses.

I can help you to understand what you’re entitled to and help with practical things like parking permits and extra money you may be able to claim.

Designed for you

Our beautiful centre was built in 2019. Drawing upon Maggie's philosophy and the belief that great design can help people feel better, Maggie's Yorkshire uses several 'healthy' materials and energy-saving techniques to create spaces that are perfect for the delivery of our cancer support.
