When Maggie Keswick Jencks died from cancer in July 1995, plans for the conversion of a former stable at Edinburgh's Western General hospital lay on the bed with her. Drawn up by the Scottish architect Richard Murphy, these were designs for the first of the Maggie's Centres that opened in November 1996. The third of these innovative and inspiring cancer daycare centres - the second was completed last autumn at the Western Infirmary, Glasgow - is to be opened this Friday by Sir Bob Geldof in the grounds of Ninewells hospital, Dundee, overlooking the Firth of Tay.
