It's so wonderful seeing everyone Go Gold already for CCAM this September! ๐ŸŽ—๏ธ๐Ÿ’›

Kids Get Cancer Too have developed some fab tools to make it so easy to Go Gold online! Turn your profile picture gold to stand with the 4,000+ children and young people diagnosed with cancer in the UK every year.

Childhood cancer deserves to be seen, heard and understood. Yet it remains vastly underrepresented in public awareness.

This September, we can change that.

Letโ€™s fill social media with gold and shine a light on childhood cancers, including neuroblastoma. Together, we can make sure more people know, care and take action so we can fund๐Ÿ“ฃmore๐Ÿ“ฃresearch๐Ÿ“ฃ

Blood Cancer Awareness Month starts today โค๏ธ

Blood cancer changes everything. Whether youโ€™re living with it, have been through it, supporting someone you love, or remembering someone youโ€™ve lost - this month is for you.

For the moments blood cancer has changed.
For the moments research has helped make possible.
And for all the moments still to come.

Share this to help us raise awareness, and if blood cancer has touched your life, let us know in the comments.

๐Ÿš— Volunteer Drivers Needed- Make a difference in your community! ๐Ÿ’™

For over 50 years, Volunteer Centre West Berkshire has supported local people through our community transport scheme in Newbury. We help less able passengers attend important appointments, including hospitals, clinics, dentists, chiropodists, and even social events.

We're looking for caring and reliable volunteer drivers to:

โœ… Collect clients from their homes
โœ… Drive them to appointments
โœ… Stay with them during their appointment if needed

Whether you can help regularly or occasionally, your time could be invaluable to someone who would otherwise struggle to get to essential appointments.
