Our highlights from 2024/25
The past year has been marked by significant achievements and meaningful milestones – each bringing us closer to our vision of a future where no child dies from neuroblastoma or suffers because of the treatment they receive.
Here are some of our key highlights from the last twelve months…
Research
We drive and invest in pioneering clinical research, focused on finding treatments that are more effective and less toxic.
Last year we...
Launched our new research strategy which aims to accelerate access to innovative clinical approaches by strengthening existing trial infrastructure, enabling transatlantic collaboration, and fast-tracking promising research into frontline treatment.
Convened a meeting of leading scientific experts from Europe and North America to foster transatlantic collaboration and discuss shared objectives.
Family Support
Our service is built upon hope and places children at the heart of all we do. It focusses on the here and now, easing the immediate burdens and pressures that a neuroblastoma diagnosis brings.
Last year we...
Hosted our first in-person Neuroblastoma Parent Symposium since 2019. This hybrid event brought together families, clinicians, and researchers, providing a vital opportunity for connection, peer support, and learning from leading experts.
Reached more families of children diagnosed with neuroblastoma at an earlier point, providing 31 Big Love Fund grants to families and 36 Care & Connect Support Bags to children.
Awareness
In order to drive long-term change and improvement to the lives of children with cancer, we are committed to raising the profile of childhood cancer, and tackling systemic challenges that stand in the way of progress. Through strategic partnerships across the sector, we are amplifying the voices of children and families, driving action amongst experts, and influencing key decisionmakers to facilitate national change.
Last year we...
Launched our Kids Get Cancer Too campaign, shining a national spotlight on the unique challenges faced by children with cancer. The campaign focused on the urgent need to accelerate clinical research to find kinder, more effective treatments.
We officially convened IMPACCT – the Initiative for Multi-stakeholder Partnership to Accelerate Children’s Cancer Trials, chaired by Professor Pam Kearns. IMPACCT addresses one of the biggest barriers in childhood cancer treatment: the slow and complex process of delivering clinical trials.
