Cancer Fund for Children are dedicated to ensuring that no child has to face cancer alone, providing therapeutic and emotional support to young people who have a cancer diagnosis or are living with a parent with cancer.
By working closely with bereaved families, Cancer Fund for Children help them cope with the emotional pain of losing a child or parent to cancer.
The charity also provides patients and families with access to short breaks in their purpose built therapeutic centre - Daisy Lodge. Here they can spend quality time together in a safe and supportive environment, far removed from the pressures of cancer treatment and hospital wards.
In 2022, we awarded a multi-year grant to fund a full time Cancer Support Specialist, who will provide support to young people aged 5-24 impacted by cancer across Northern Ireland.
