Help us raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of primary bone cancer this Childhood Cancer Awareness Month 🎗️

Around 70 children in the UK will be diagnosed with primary bone cancer this year. Recognising the signs and symptoms could help them get diagnosed sooner.

Signs of primary bone cancer can include:
- Bone pain which may be constant or intermittent and worsen at night
- A lump or swelling
- Mobility issues
- Tenderness over a bone or joint
- Pathological fractures

Learn the signs and reach out to your GP. You can also contact our Support Team on 0800 111 4855 (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm) or email [email protected]

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we're proud to support the campaign. Alongside twenty one other charities, we're going gold to stand with children and young people affected by cancer.

Each year, around 1,650 children in the UK are diagnosed with cancer. Around 70 of those children will be diagnosed with primary bone cancer, a rare disease that can have a life-changing impact on children, young people and their families 🧡

Together, we are raising awareness, driving understanding and ensuring every child and family affected by cancer receives the attention, support and research they deserve.

Today we’re saying a huge to the London Sarcoma Service at Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust and UCLH - University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for going the extra mile during Sarcoma Awareness Month.

The team set out to 'travel' the equivalent distance from RNOH to each of the bone sarcoma centres - a total of 513 miles.

They absolutely smashed it and went on to double their goal and complete an incredible 1,106 miles by walking, running, cycling, swimming and more! 🏃🏃‍♀️

Thank you for your amazing team effort and commitment to raising awareness of bone and soft tissue sarcomas 🧡

Collaboration is key to accelerating progress in bone cancer research 🧬

Earlier this year, we were proud to support the 8th EuSARC Annual Symposium in Oslo, bringing together researchers, clinicians and patient representatives from across Europe to share knowledge, build partnerships and advance research into primary bone cancer and soft tissue sarcoma.

The Bone Cancer Research Trust funded the very first EuSARC meeting in Sheffield in 2017 and, since then, it has grown into one of the leading meetings in the sarcoma research calendar, helping to drive collaboration and innovation across the field.

Additionally, we provided Skills Development Grants to 14 early-career researchers enabling them to attend this year's event, helping to develop the next generation of sarcoma researchers.

We were also proud to support the symposium's early-career researcher awards, celebrating outstanding research from across the sarcoma community. Congratulations to Dr Tyler Barr, Research Fellow at the University of Leeds, who received the Best Poster Presentation Award for her Bone Cancer Research Trust-funded osteosarcoma research, and Heng Luo from the Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum (DKFZ), who received the Best Oral Presentation Award for his work advancing understanding of Ewing sarcoma biology.

Today's goes to Bethany, who organised the incredible Bone Nanza Gala in support of Bone Cancer Research Trust and The Montgomery Unit 🧡

Having faced her own diagnosis of a rare Giant Cell Tumour of the Bone at just 19 years old, Bethany turned her experience into something truly positive by creating a night dedicated to giving back and helping future patients.

From planning the event to bringing together friends, family and supporters, Bethany's passion and hard work shone through every detail. We'd also like to say a huge thank you to Dr Liz O'Riordan, BCRT Patron, for hosting the evening and helping make it such a special event.

A huge thank you to Bethany for her outstanding support and for inspiring so many people with her story 🧡

This week’s goes to Evie and her incredible friends, who took on an extraordinary challenge in memory of Evie’s mum, Marian 🧡

Their determination, teamwork and commitment to honouring Marian's memory is truly inspiring. Every mile cycled and every peak conquered will help bring us closer to a future where everyone affected by primary bone cancer has hope.
