Making life better for children with cancer through funding revolutionary research at Newcastle University's Wolfson Childhood Cancer Research Centre and providing support to children on wards 4 & 14 at the Great North Children's Hospital.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we regret to inform you that our public engagement event ‘Revolutionary Research into Childhood Cancer’ will be postponed until later in the year.
Our team are busy working on arrangements to confirm a new date as soon as possible, which is likely to be mid-October.
When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, many families have to take time off work to become a carer.
As part of Carers Week we're raising awareness of the families affected by cancer and how we support them, such as by offering funded family respite breaks.
