When a child is diagnosed with cancer life becomes full of fear, for them and their family. Fear of treatment, but also of families being torn apart, overwhelming money worries, of having nowhere to turn, no one to talk to.

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. We’ll face it all together – but we can’t do it without you.

It's a new year, and once again I'm going on a run to help raise money for a fantastic cause. I've seen first-hand how this charity has supported my friends in their time of need, and would love to ensure that many more families can benefit from this too!
