CLIC Sargent provide practical, financial and emotional support for children and their families following a cancer diagnosis. They aid a great number of families in dealing with treatment, life after treatment, and bereavement. When cancer strikes any age, it’s devastating. But it’s unimaginably cruel when a young person is diagnosed. Worse yet, during a pandemic. Please donate what you can to help CLIC Sargent be there for them.

According to Children with Cancer UK, each year there are 4500 new cases of cancer in children and young adults in the UK. We are running, walking and cycling 4500 miles starting on February 4th for a month and would like your help to raise as much money as possible for the children and their families! Here are some ideas of where your money could be going: - £4 could pay for a child to receive a CLIC Sargent story book, helping them to not be scared of their cancer and better understand the upcoming treatment in a child-friendly way. - £25 could pay for an hour of support for a family from a CLIC Sargent Social Care Worker. - £33 could pay for a family to stay together, for free in a CLIC Sargent Home from Home for one night, close to where their child receives cancer treatment. - £170 could pay for a family to receive a CLIC Sargent grant helping to cover the immediate costs that a cancer diagnosis brings, such as travel, parking and sibling childcare. - £200 could pay for the bereavement support of a young cancer patient and their family. - £1,023 could pay for 31 days; the average duration of a family’s stay at a CLIC Sargent Home from Home saving that family £3,100 in emergency accommodation costs and enabling the family to stay together, for free, close to where their child receives cancer treatment.
