BAILEY’S BAGS: Maria hoped to raise £500 for chemo grab bags. She’s passed £4,000

A woman who packed “grab bags” of chemo essentials while going through cancer treatment herself has now handed over 40 of them for women starting theirs.

Maria Bailey, from Bridgend, hoped to raise £500 when she launched her Bailey’s Bags appeal in the summer. The total has now passed £4,000, she says.

Her own treatment for cervical cancer finished on 13 August, and she made up the bags during her treatment and recovery.

The first 20 went to the South West Wales Cancer Centre at Singleton Hospital on 10 September. They were handed over through Swansea Bay Health Charity, the health board’s official charity.

Another 20 were taken to Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff on Monday 5 October.

The bags are now being given to women having chemotherapy for cervical cancer in south Wales, Maria says.

What goes into a Bailey’s Bag

Each pink backpack holds the things Maria found herself needing on the ward: a fleece blanket, ginger tea, a neck pillow, pear drops and a water bottle marked with drinking times.

The backpack can also charge a phone from a power bank, because a treatment chair may be nowhere near a plug. Maria has said each bag costs around £92 to buy and pack.

“Never been so lazy”: Maria’s recovery after treatment

Since her treatment ended, Maria says she has “never been so lazy”. “I’ve worked all my life so this is alien to me,” she said.

She has an MRI scan in November to see how she has responded to treatment, and is “keeping everything crossed” that she will be cancer free.

Patients’ families get in touch about Bailey’s Bags

The feedback has been “incredible”, Maria said, especially from patients’ families.

The daughter of the first woman at Velindre to receive a bag got in touch to say her mother had phoned her, delighted with it, in the middle of her treatment.

Maria has also thanked the people who looked after her. She singled out Rhisiard Jenkins, a volunteer on the chemotherapy ward in Swansea who she said “kept me watered and well fed”, and “the brilliant radiotherapy team” at the cancer centre.

Bailey’s Bags on Instagram, and prostate cancer next

She says she has “dragged myself into the 21st century” to set up an Instagram account, baileysbags2026, where she posts updates.

In the summer, Maria said she hoped to extend the bags to men having chemotherapy and radiotherapy for prostate cancer.

Donations to Bailey’s Bags can be made through Maria’s fundraising page.

RMHC Philippines’ BACK-to-BAKuna Named 2026 Outstanding CSR Project for Health at LCF CSR Guild Awards

MANILA, Philippines — Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) Philippines’ flagship community health initiative, BACK-to-BAKuna, has been recognized as the 2026 Outstanding CSR Project for Health at the League of Corporate Foundations (LCF) CSR Guild Awards, honoring its innovative approach to improving childhood immunization completion.

BACK-to-BAKuna addresses a critical challenge in routine childhood immunization: while many families begin vaccination, some struggle to complete the required doses due to missed schedules, concerns, and logistical barriers. The program strengthened existing public vaccination services by introducing behavior-based solutions that help caregivers remember schedules, prepare for visits, seek support, and return until completion.

Piloted in Iloilo City and the Municipality of Janiuay in August 2025, the initiative combined behavioral research, community collaboration, and practical tools such as group vaccine cards, milestone calendars, digital reminders, transport support, and health promotion activities. 

Using a quasi-experimental approach, BACK-to-BAKuna demonstrated significant improvements in vaccination completion, with intervention groups showing greater gains compared to control groups. Findings also showed that caregivers who engaged peers, invited others, and attended vaccination activities together were more likely to complete their children’s vaccination schedules.

“The recognition of BACK-to-BAKuna reflects our commitment to creating meaningful and sustainable solutions that respond to the real needs of Filipino families. By helping caregivers overcome barriers and supporting them throughout their children’s vaccination journey, we are able to strengthen community health outcomes and help more children receive the protection they need,” said Marie Angeles, Executive Director of Ronald McDonald House Charities Philippines.

The program’s innovation lies in recognizing that improving health outcomes requires more than access to services — it requires understanding and supporting the behaviors that influence follow-through.

By addressing barriers beyond the first vaccine visit, BACK-to-BAKuna helped transform vaccination access into completed childhood protection. To sustain its impact, RMHC Philippines partnered with local government units to integrate the program’s tested tools and approaches into existing immunization workflows. Through capacity-building support and an Adaptation Playbook, local health teams are equipped to continue applying the approach within routine health promotion activities.

The LCF CSR Guild Awards recognizes organizations that demonstrate excellence in corporate citizenship through impactful and sustainable social development initiatives. This recognition affirms RMHC Philippines’ commitment to creating healthier communities and helping more Filipino children receive complete protection through timely vaccination.

HPV‑FASTER‑Implement aims at advancing cervical cancer prevention, and strengthening awareness of cervical cancer prevention.

Analysis of the association between cervical cancer and the Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) among 174 cancer survivors and 870 matched controls found that, after controlling for several lifestyle factors, the women in the highest CDAI tertile had a 55.8% lower incidence of cancer than those in the lowest tertile.

Diet was self-reported and the data don't allow causal conclusions.

BRIDGEND: ‘You are not alone’ — the woman making ‘Bailey’s Bags’ of chemo essentials, handed over the day treatment is confirmed

A Bridgend woman having chemotherapy for cervical cancer is making “grab bags” of essentials for other women about to start treatment — to be handed over on the very day they’re told it’s coming.

Maria Bailey, 55, designed her “One Grab Chemo Bag” — since christened “Bailey’s Bags” — after researching and packing her own before her first session at Singleton Hospital‘s cancer clinic in Swansea, where she is now having weekly chemotherapy and daily radiotherapy.

Inside goes everything she found herself needing: a fleece blanket, ginger tea, a neck pillow, pear drops, a bladder-capacity water bottle — and a backpack that can charge a phone from a power bank, because your treatment chair may not be anywhere near a plug socket.

Maria was diagnosed on 22 April after months of heavy bleeding — with clots she has described as “the size of baby seals”.

Her last cervical screening, five years earlier, had been clear, and her next wasn’t due until May this year — but when something felt wrong at the start of the year, she went straight to her GP rather than waiting. Cervical screening in Wales is offered every five years, and anyone with symptoms is urged to see their GP without waiting for their next routine appointment.

An initial fundraising page passed its £500 target within a day of launching — and Maria has since relaunched her GoFundMe page to make sure every donation goes directly into buying and packing the bags, at around £92 each.

The idea has already travelled: staff at Velindre, Cardiff’s specialist cancer centre, have told her they love it — and Maria hopes to extend the bags to men going through chemotherapy and radiotherapy for prostate cancer.

Between treatment sessions, Maria answered our questions — here she is, in her own words.

Take us back to your first chemo session — what did you wish you’d had with you that day?

“Because I love organising, I did a bit of research before my first sesh and created my One Grab Chemo Bag! It was a simple idea but I was ready and packed beforehand. I just wished that I didn’t have to buy it myself, especially being on the sick — and that’s where my simple idea came about. I did think of donating my own bag after treatment, but thought I would like to help more than one person.”

What goes into a bag — and is there one item that means the most?

“All the items are on my GoFundMe page but, gathering feedback from the brave ladies at the Cancer Clinic in Singleton, more items are being added — a medicine organising box, and a fold-up portable fan, especially in this weather!

“I think for me, it was the backpack’s ability to charge devices via a power bank, as your chair may not be by a plug socket. Also my neck pillow, pear drops and water bottle — truth be told, everything in there is invaluable.”

You want to hand these over on the day women are told treatment is starting — why that exact moment?

“I feel tangible support helps massively, and I know from personal experience — I just had to rock up on the day without thinking about or buying what I thought I needed. It took another worry out of my over-worried mind!”

What would you say to women about knowing their own bodies and pushing for answers?

“My clear smear was five years ago and I was due another in May this year. I knew something wasn’t quite right at the beginning of this year, so popped off to my doctor’s at The New Surgery in Pencoed, who was brilliant — she was never dismissive and got the ball rolling very quickly to investigate. I realise how lucky I am that it wasn’t dismissed as being usual ‘women problems’ and she took me seriously.”

What’s the response been like — from other patients, and from the staff at Singleton?

“Every single person I have spoken to — from the funny characters who drive me to and from hospital, the ambulance volunteers, the girls and guys in radio, and of course the brave ladies who put up with me babbling with enthusiasm about this — have said it is a simple but brilliant idea! The patients I have spoken to all said the same: they didn’t know what to take in with them, like me, but if they’d had this beforehand it would have been a great help. I recently met the amazing staff at Velindre, who loved the idea too.”

If someone reading this was diagnosed this week, what would you want them to know?

“My phone number? They could ask me anything and I would give them an honest, down-to-earth answer to all the many questions they may not think to ask. If that was not possible, I would say: you are really in the best hands when the treatment starts, keep positive — and you are not alone.”

Donations to Bailey’s Bags can be made via Maria’s fundraising page.
