Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We make up part of the Fundraising Operations and Individual Giving teams of the amazing CLIC Sargent. Seeing daily how much CLIC Sargent helps we wanted to do a bit extra to help CLIC Sargent be there for more young cancer patients, and for longer.
Today, 10 children and young people, and their families, will have life as they know it turned upside down by the news they have cancer. Treatment is often gruelling and can happen a long way from home. Dealing with cancer can be overwhelming, from emotional strain to practical and financial worries. That's where CLIC Sargent comes in, helping them cope with the often overwhelming impact of cancer and its treatment on the whole family.
CLIC Sargent provides practical, emotional and clinical support to children and young people with cancer across the UK and last year we supported more than 6,600 young cancer patients and their families.
CLIC Sargent Colour Crew are taking part in the Color Vibe Bristol 5K 2016. Please give generously, we work for an incredible charity and we see just how far the money goes. We've set a pretty ambitious and odd target of £990 but this would pay for a family to stay for a month in a CLIC Sargent Home from Home. A Home from Home provides free self-catering accommodation near to specialist children’s cancer treatment centres, which are often many miles from a family’s own home. Staying in a Home from Home ensures a family can be close to their child during treatment.
