Neuroblastoma Parent Symposium
Where families affected by neuroblastoma can come together and connect with those who work to treat, help, and support them.
About the Symposium
Following a neuroblastoma diagnosis, children and families face tough challenges at every point along their journey and difficult decision-making in the pursuit of the best possible outcomes. During this free event, families affected by neuroblastoma have the opportunity to come together and to connect with those who work to treat, help, and support them.
As a hybrid event, in March 2025 we welcomed families and other participants back for in-person attendance for the first time since 2019, whilst live streaming the event so it was accessible to everyone.
About this year's event programme
This year's programme featured presentations, panel discussions, and Q&A sessions on the latest developments in neuroblastoma research and treatment, as well as the challenges that may arise post-treatment. There was also sessions on survivorship, involving neuroblastoma survivors, and discussions about self-care and hope.

Video resources
We record all sessions each year, enabling and growing a valuable video resource library for families affected by neuroblastoma to draw on throughout their journey. Thanks to this, we're able to reach parents far beyond our events, helping to empower them through knowledge and sharing of experiences.
This video library covers a broad range of topics within neuroblastoma, including the basics of the disease, current approaches to treatment, cutting-edge areas of research, and psychosocial support.
