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. Visit www.younglivesvscancer.org.uk

Story

On the 19th April our members will run the Newport Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K .

Being diagnosed with cancer as a young adult changes everything. Without warning, your life is on hold, and your ambitions and dreams are suddenly very far away. YLVC helps children and young people (0-25) and their families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them.
