Today's Spring Statement was a chance for UK Government to support children and young people with cancer with the extra costs that come with a diagnosis.
Our CEO @rachelkirby.bsky.social shares her reflections on how the statement missed the mark for the families we support.

A thoughtful discussion at parliament today on the findings of this report. I was struck by Minnal (a lived experience speaker) who said that just fixing the ‘basics’ like communication would be transformative. I’ve loved watching this unique method of engagement unfold over the last few months.

Earlier this week @fleuranderson.bsky.social met with us @younglivesvscancer.bsky.social about the needs of young cancer patients in Northern Ireland and across the UK- they often cross borders for care so systems need to flex for unique needs but also consistency of care across the UK is vital.
