How your fundraising will help beat childhood cancer
Cancer doesn’t care about childhood. It doesn’t care what seriously ill kids miss out on, like trips to the seaside or playing in the park with their friends.
But we do.
Despite great progress in treatments and cures, cancer is still the biggest killer of children aged one to 14 in the UK and around 1,900 children are diagnosed every year.*
At GOSH Charity, we know that when cancer hits, childhood suffers. That's why we're building the new, world-leading Children's Cancer Centre at GOSH.
With cutting-edge facilities and an environment where pioneering research can thrive, this centre will be a beacon of hope for families facing the unimaginable. And because cancer shouldn’t get to steal anyone’s childhood, it will be more than a hospital building. It will be a school, a playground, a garden and a home-from-home.
Take on RBC Race for the Kids and join our team of doctors, builders, nurses, researchers and many more helping to build the Children's Cancer Centre – so we can give more kids with cancer the best chance and the best childhood possible.
Be part of it
Run, walk, wheel or scoot to help build the new Children’s Cancer Centre at GOSH and save more lives. Together, we can build it. Together, we can help beat childhood cancer.
