Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

When a child is diagnosed with cancer it can seem like normal life stops and a different journey begins.  It’s a journey that tests families physically, emotionally, socially and financially.

To be told that a child has cancer comes as a terrible shock. Yet to know that seven out of 10 children now survive cancer may offer some kind of comfort and reassurance to families.

Thanks to research into treatment and causes, the outlook is now one of hope, forward thinking and positive outcomes

The care and treatment of children with cancer has come a long way and today seven out of ten children diagnosed will survive.  CLIC Sargent is committed to improving this figure further through its specialist care and by funding both clinical and social research projects.

But the fact is, cancer is still the largest killer disease in young children. The survivors of childhood cancer face major challenges of on-going side effects and discrimination. They still need our support.

CLIC Sargent are committed to delivering the best possible services to children, young people with cancer and their families
