A cancer diagnosis is every family’s worst nightmare made real. Nothing can prepare a parent for having to explain cancer to their child, watching them cope with the brutal side-effects of treatment, or face life-changing surgery like limb amputations.

CLIC Sargent is here for families and children with cancer every single step of the way. Our specialist nurses support families by helping to explain cancer to children and make their treatment less scary. We also help parents cope with the day-to-day struggles, from securing financial support, to making sure they can get time off work and be where they need to be – at their children’s bedside while they go through cancer.

No family should have to face the trauma of cancer alone. You can help us make sure families and children are supported to get through cancer.
