How to find us
The
Christie's Appeal offices are located on Wilmslow Road,
Withington. Directly opposite the glass-canopied Holt Entrance
of The Christie NHS Trust. The Appeals Office is set behind
Withington Green in a large house which has been converted into
offices.
There’s plenty of room for visitors to park on the driveway, which
is right next to the bus stop. If your traveling from outside
the
local area, or you don't know where Wilmslow Road or The Christie
Hospital is, then here are some directions:-
