Story

Join #teamkidscancercharity

Thank you for joining our #teamkidscancercharity team and for running for us at one of the most iconic sporting events; the London Marathon. Your fundraising will make a valuable difference to our families.

Through our specialist Play Therapy and Care Breaks you can help make smiles, create lasting memories and provide hope to the children and families we support through their cancer journey.

Everyday life for children affected by cancer is challenging and talking about obstacles can be hard, they may not have the words to describe how they are feeling or recognise what it is they find difficult. Our specialist Play Therapists give children affected by cancer and their siblings the opportunity to explore their feelings and make sense of life experiences in a safe place and at a safe pace, with no time limit placed on the support we offer.

Another form of therapy, our Care Breaks afford an opportunity to step away from hospitals, treatment plans, the physical demands and emotional toll of unrelenting clinical regimes; providing our families with valuable time spent together, respite, time to exhale; an opportunity to recharge and soothe.

"Feedback from children and their families shows that the children have grown in confidence and feel less isolated. Health professionals frequently inform us that the children are more receptive to treatment after breaks and that our support has brought a sense of normality, smiles, laughter and healing."

With your meaningful contribution we will help more and more children and families.
