Young Lives vs Cancer

Young Lives vs Cancer

When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world (and their family’s) can feel like it’s falling apart.  
 
The impact of cancer on young lives is far more than medical. Their anxieties are deep. Their education, mental health and social lives suffer. Their future feels very uncertain. 
 
Young Lives vs Cancer is there to make sure they get the right care and support at the right time. 
 
We’re the only charity in the UK with social workers who dedicate their time to provide tailored psychosocial support to children and young people with cancer and their families. 
 
Please help us to be there for more children and young people facing cancer by setting up a tax-free regular gift direct from your salary.

Our Vision

A world of protection and opportunity for children living alone and at risk on the streets.

Railway Children is an international children's charity. We fight for vulnerable children who live alone at risk on the streets, where they suffer abuse and exploitation.

In the UK, society often denies their existence, and in other countries the problem is so prevalent that it has become 'normal'.

They run away or are forced to leave homes where they suffer poverty, violence, abuse and neglect. They find themselves living on the streets because there is nowhere else to go and no one left to turn to. The problems they face on the streets are often even worse than those they endured at home. Every day we fight to change their story.

Railway Children race to reach children as soon as they arrive on the streets and intervene before an abuser can. Our pioneering work enables us to get to street children before the streets get to them.
