10 families, 1 cancer
This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, meet 10 families who share their experiences of neuroblastoma.
For Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, Solving Kids' Cancer UK is launching the '10 families, 1 cancer' campaign, where we meet 10 different families, all of whom have been affected by neuroblastoma and who have a story to tell.
Their story will explore a different theme of neuroblastoma and, every week of September, we will share new stories which cover many different and thought-provoking topics.
