After losing both their children to cancer in the same year, the O’Gorman family founded Children with Cancer UK to fund research and help other families living through the same situation. This became their life’s work and their legacy.
Our mission is to see a world where every child and young person survives cancer and to ensure that children with cancer have the best possible chance of survival with access to the best possible care and support, regardless of their economic situation or where they live in the UK.
We’ve been making a difference in the lives of children with cancer since 1988, funding our first research centre in 1995. In those 35 years we’ve developed kinder treatments, helped people to better understand childhood cancer and raised over £300 million, funding over 300 research projects.
