Every day, 12 children and young people in the UK will receive a devastating cancer diagnosis. This shocking news changes life for the whole family. CLIC Sargent steps in the moment the doctor says ‘cancer’ to provide a wide range of emotional, practical and financial assistance. We provide tailored support to each child and young person under the age of 25, as well as their family, from the point of diagnosis to help them cope with their new world and empower them to not just survive cancer but to thrive.

CLIC Sargent is there for children and young people with cancer. We are there for their families too, responding to their individual needs and caring through treatment and beyond. We provide emotional,practical,financial and clinical support, and we take what beneficiaries tell us about the impact of cancer on their lives to service providers and policy makers to help change things for the better.
Our vision is a world where everyone under 25 with cancer, and their families, will get the support and help they need during their cancer treatment and beyond, including bereaved families living with emotional pain. Cancer is shocking, overwhelming, isolating ... and completely unfair. Especially when you're young. lt takes over your life. Treatment is gruelling and your ambitions and dreams - education, relationships, career, travel - suddenly Seem very far away. We get that. That's why CLIC Sargent fights tirelessly to stop cancer destroying young lives. We pro...vide grants and free accommodation close to hospital to help with spiralling costs. Our SocialWorkers are on hand to help families with everything from getting benefits to enabling treatment closer to home. And we lobby the government to make sure they get the support they're entitled to and make change to the system happen. We're here to make sure young cancer patients can focus on getting their lives back on track.
We currently help over 6,700 children and young people, and their families, going through cancer. But every day 12 more children and young people will hear the devastating news they have cancer.
