Today, 12 children and young people will be diagnosed with cancer. We’ll stop at nothing to make sure they get the right care and support at the right time.
When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world (and their family’s) can feel like it’s falling apart. Their anxieties are deep. Their education, mental health and social lives suffer. Their futures feel very uncertain. They need tailored psychosocial support and they need to know that their voices and unique needs are being heard and understood.
We’re there to make sure that happens.
We believe children and young people with cancer are more than their diagnosis. And we’ll stop at nothing to make sure they have the right support and the same opportunities as everyone else.
We know what a better future could look like for children and young people with cancer. And we know what we need to do to make that future
a reality. We know we need to push harder, reach further and work smarter. And we know we need the right people on our team to help us get there. People like you.
