About Us

In February of 2023, York Against Cancer were proud to open the doors of The Leveson Centre. Since then, we have done all we can to create a comforting, relaxed space for cancer patients, their friends and their family to find the support they need.

The Leveson Centre has thoughtfully been named after one of the charity’s founders, Professor Steve Leveson, a retired Consultant Surgeon, who started York Against Cancer 35 years ago and who, with his wife Pat, has supported the charity ever since. Renowned for his skills as a surgeon, researcher, educator and for his genuine compassion, he has touched the lives of thousands of people across North and East Yorkshire.

Victoria Edwards – Operations Manager

Operations Manager Victoria comes from a background of not-for-profit work in a healthcare organisation. Victoria plays a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth daily operations of the centre.

Donna Christie – Assistant

As The Leveson Centre Assistant, Donna is instrumental in ensuring everyone who comes to the Centre gets the support they need. With a background in the police service and later in public health, Donna is dedicated to always trying to make sure people feel heard, respected and supported.
