We raise awareness

We’re working to get childhood cancer the attention it needs

Childhood cancer is not the same as adult cancer, and understanding those differences matters. Through our initiatives and campaigns, we help families, researchers, and the wider public better understand childhood cancer. You can read childhood cancer stories shared by families, add your own story to help others feel less alone, and learn more about how we fund life-saving research. Knowledge is power, and with your support, including making a donation, we can improve outcomes for the thousands of children and young people diagnosed with cancer every year.

Awareness days and months

Sharing the news

We provide further support and comfort to families with blogs and news stories; researchers explain their how they’re helping, parents share their advice and journalists publish our biggest stories.
