Merry Christmas Everyone! This year, instead of Christmas cards, I’ve donated to the wonderful ‘Children with Cancer in Malawi’ charity justgiving.com/charity/childr…. You could do the same if you’re interested?! Wishing you all a happy and healthy 2026!

We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to this achievement, and to our members, collaborators, funders and supporters who have helped make this possible.

We can't wait to welcome delegates to our biggest-ever annual conference next week in Birmingham! We've got an ambitious programme of talks, workshops and more, packed with valuable insights on treatment, care and research. See you there! 👋🤩 bit.ly/4hs4bPR #CCLG2025

Why have CCLG and TYAC merged their memberships to form a new professional association? To foster greater collaboration, enhance access to resources, and build a stronger community dedicated to advancing treatment, care and support for #CYP with cancer 💛 www.cclg.org.uk/news-updates...

Oh my days....70 years in the making!
