Story

Every day, 10 children and young people in the UK hear the shocking news they have cancer. CLIC Sargent is the UK’s leading cancer charity for children, young people and their families, providing clinical, practical and emotional support to help them cope with cancer and get the most out of life.

Being diagnosed with cancer is a frightening experience. The gruelling, often life-saving cancer treatment can last up to three years and frequently leads to children and young people losing their hair.

Show your support by getting your wig on, donating online here and sending this page to all your friends and colleagues encouraging them to do the same!

We hope to raise an amazing £250,000 to enable CLIC Sargent to continue providing vital clinical, practical and emotional support for young cancer patients, and we'd love to raise £50,000 through this fundraising page alone.
