Story

At CLIC Sargent we keep families together. And at Christmas, we work hard to ensure children on treatment get home. When that's not possible, our ten Homes from Home offer a lifeline, stopping families being pulled apart at a time when being with family is so important

What are CLIC Sargent Homes from Home?

Our Homes from Home do exactly what they describe. They offer a safe place for families to live when their child is going through treatment, a home away from home which keeps them together at a difficult time. They're free and close to principal treatment centres. This means families can focus on their child and avoid the extra financial and time burdens of travel, accommodation and food..

Race to the North Pole

It costs £2,700 per night for all ten of the CLIC Sargent Homes from Home over the festive season .

And it's 2,700 miles to the North Pole...

Please race to the North Pole and raise £2,700 in your teams and keep a family facing cancer together this Christmas.
