Every event helps us reach more families, expand our services, and provide vital support
At Home
Children coming to terms with a cancer diagnosis can feel isolated and confused. Our Cancer Support Specialists visit them in their own homes, bringing therapeutic support, fun and connection.
In Hospital
Being in hospital for treatment can be distressing, especially for a young person who feels like their life is very different from their friends’. Our Youth Support Workers help them to come to terms with their diagnosis and cope with these big feelings.
At Daisy Lodge
A family that has been impacted by cancer can struggle to find time together and is often left feeling disconnected and exhausted. Daisy Lodge gives them a space where they can focus on spending time together in a nurturing and safe environment.
Hold Your Own Event
Planning your own event is a great way to support us as there are so many types to choose from. Whether organising a gala dinner, head shave, fun day or football match, there will be an event to suit you, and we’ll be here to support you every step of the way.
If timelines for events aren’t matching up, you can still help make a difference through a direct donation. Every contribution helps ensure children and families affected by cancer can access vital support when they need it most.
