A future where no child dies of neuroblastoma or suffers due to the treatment they receive
Help us make this change
How you can helpResearch. Support. Awareness.
We are striving for better outcomes for children and families affected by childhood cancer. Solving Kids' Cancer UK has a particular focus and expertise in the rare and complex cancer, neuroblastoma. We will not stop until children with neuroblastoma, in the UK and beyond, have access to the treatments they need as close to home as possible.
Research
We initiate and fund pioneering and best-in-class clinical research to save lives and improve outcomes for children.
Support
We provide a family support service, led by professionals with personal experience of caring for a child with neuroblastoma.
Awareness
We raise awareness of childhood cancer and advocate and campaign for positive change.
