--------------
Solving Kids’ Cancer works to support children with the aggressive childhood cancer neuroblastoma and their families.
Neuroblastoma is an aggressive and rare childhood cancer that affects around 100 children in the UK each year. Most children are diagnosed below the age of five and treatment can be intensive and gruelling, including chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and immunotherapy. Sadly, neuroblastoma has a high rate of relapse, meaning that even after successful treatment, the cancer can come back. If it does, survival rate drops to a devastating 1 in 10.
Solving Kids’ Cancer is fighting for a future where no child dies of neuroblastoma or suffers due to its treatment.
They offer family support, to be there for families of children affected by neuroblastoma throughout their cancer journey. They also provide access to treatment, offering impartial information to help families navigate the complex medical landscape and choose treatment options for their child. They fund innovative clinical research bringing kinder and more effective treatment options to the UK for children fighting neuroblastoma now, and in the future.
COVID- 19 presents more challenges than ever to children with neuroblastoma and their families. Children in frontline cancer treatment or who have recently finished their treatment are at their most vulnerable and are going to have to self-isolate for 12 weeks or longer. Parents isolating with their children may have to sacrifice their jobs or stop working all together. In this time of unprecedented uncertainty, Solving Kids’ Cancer is dedicated to supporting families throughout their cancer journey to overcome any challenges that may arise and as such would like to offer all families of children with low, medium or high risk neuroblastoma the opportunity to access emergency hardship relief funds.
