Young Lives vs Cancer

https://www.younglivesvscancer.org.uk/join-our-fight/get-fundraising/get-fundraising-events/


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. 

Powered by the kindness of our supporters, we’ll face it all together.


How Your Support Helps

Every day 12 children and young people are diagnosed with cancer. Yet not one of them has the same experience. All young cancer patients have different needs, opportunities and backgrounds and for some, the systems in place and gaps in support mean that their experiences are much more challenging than others. That’s why the support they receive must look beyond their diagnosis. It should provide them with what they need, so that they can go on to thrive no matter what....
