September wears gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. 💛

Behind every childhood cancer diagnosis is a child whose world should still be filled with learning, playing and dreaming—and a family suddenly navigating something they never expected.

This month, we recognise the children and teenagers affected by cancer, the families standing beside them, and the healthcare teams dedicated to their care.

Awareness helps create understanding, encourages timely referral and reminds affected families that they should never have to walk this journey alone.

Wear gold. Start conversations. Help childhood cancer be seen.

𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼, 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴

Spring has a way of reminding us that seasons change.

A new season doesn’t have to mean a fresh start or a big transformation. Sometimes, it can simply mean noticing the small things again—a warmer morning, flowers beginning to bloom, time outside, or a moment shared with someone you love.

There is no right way to walk a cancer journey. Take each season, and each day, at your own pace.

As we welcome Spring to East London, tell us: what small thing are you looking forward to this season?

It also offers valuable support to families and caregivers.

Palliative care does not mean giving up hope. It means protecting comfort, dignity and quality of life throughout the journey.

A handbag may seem like a small gift, but when it is filled with thoughtful essentials, care and encouragement, it can carry so much more. 💗

Personalised care means seeing and treating the individual - not simply the diagnosis.

At Cancercare East London, clinical expertise and compassionate support remain at the heart of every treatment journey.

For some patients with blood cancer or a serious blood disorder, finding a suitable stem cell donor can offer renewed hope.

Joining a donor registry usually begins with an eligibility assessment and a simple cheek swab. You may never be called to donate—but for the person who finds their match, it could be life-changing.

Take a moment to learn more through a recognised donor organisation such as DKMS Africa.

Leukaemia includes different cancers affecting the blood cells, and each patient’s diagnosis and treatment journey is unique. For some patients, a blood stem cell transplant may form part of their care.

This awareness period reminds us to learn more, support those affected and recognise the hope that donor registries can provide.

👉 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵: Only people who smoke develop lung cancer.
👉 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁: While to***co is a major risk factor, people who have never smoked can also be diagnosed with lung cancer.

No person should feel blamed or judged because of a diagnosis. Compassionate cancer care begins with listening, understanding and treating every patient with dignity.

Let us replace stigma with support.
