With your help, we’re making life better for children and young people with cancer in the North East and Cumbria.
We’re bringing the research funding of North of England Children’s Cancer Research and the practical support provided by Children’s Cancer Fund under one new orange roof to become Children’s Cancer North!
For every £1 we spend on fundraising we raise £4 to help make life better for children with cancer.
“Our work focuses on developing less toxic therapies with fewer side-effects, and more effective treatment options for youngsters with advanced cancers or those whose illness has returned”
– Professor Steve Clifford, Newcastle University Centre for Cancer
Lexie would like to see more activities on the ward for pre-teen children, like making bandanas and t-shirts with handheld sewing machines.
Lexie said “The nurses and doctors are lovely, kind and funny, this has helped with my time in hospital”
