About Us
Wellspring charges no fees, and requires no medical referral. Programs and services are available free of charge, on both a drop-in and registered basis, for individuals, family members and caregivers coping with any type of cancer, at any stage.
A Network of Community-Based Centres
Wellspring operates through a network of centres based in communities throughout Southern Ontario and Calgary. Each Wellspring centre offers similar programming and services, tailored to the unique needs of the community it serves. Wellspring Stratford is operated under the auspices of Wellspring London and is governed by the same Board of Directors. The Stratford Centre is guided by a Stratford Steering Committee and is responsible for its own funding. All Wellspring centres adhere to Wellspring’s values, model, and quality review processes.
