Cancer is shocking, overwhelming, isolating… and completely unfair. Especially when you’re young. It 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 provide grants and free accommodation close to hospital to help with spiralling costs. Our care teams are on hand to help families with everything from getting benefits to treatment closer to home. And we lobby the government to make sure they get the support they’re entitled to. We’re here to make sure young cancer patients can focus on getting their lives back on track.
And we know everyone is different, so we work hard to make sure our support is given how each child and young person needs it most.
After four years of outstanding leadership, our Chief Executive, Kate Lee, will be moving on to a new role. We’re looking for a brave, experienced and inspiring leader to take over the reins and drive the charity forward. If you have a strong desire to make things better for children and young people with cancer, and you feel you have what it takes to lead our charity, we would love to hear from you.
