Abby’s Heroes
Abby’s Heroes supports children, teenagers and young adults from across the South of England when diagnosed with cancer, together with their families. We follow a family’s journey from diagnosis, through their therapy regime, completing their treatment plan, relapse and sadly if their child needs palliative care. Offering emergency grants for either financial or practical reasons, we are able to give families breathing space to concentrate on their children, when the financial impact of childhood cancer affects a family.
Kidney Research UK (incorporating Kids Kidney Research)
As the leading kidney research charity in the UK, nothing is going to stop us in our urgent mission to end kidney disease. We’re here to be heard, to make a difference, to change the future. This is a disease that ruins and destroys lives. It must be stopped. Over the past 60 years, our research has made an impact.

Partnering with 9 hospitals across London, Surrey, and Sussex, our Family Support Workers provide vital emotional and practical support to over 2,000 people each year through counselling, creative therapy, respite breaks, or just providing a listening ear.
The Children’s Air Ambulance
The Children’s Air Ambulance is a national service, changing the face of paediatric care through the high speed transfer of critically ill children and flying them from one hospital to another for specialist care. It is the first and only dedicated paediatric helicopter emergency transfer service in the country.
The Sick Children's Trust
The Sick Children’s Trust is the charity that provides ‘Homes from Home’ at major paediatric hospitals in England, giving families from across the UK a place to stay close to their seriously ill child’s bedside. For any parent, there’s nothing more important than being there when your child is sick, to help them get better.
The Sussex Snowdrop Trust
The Sussex Snowdrop Trust is the local children’s charity, based in West Sussex, which provides vital nursing care at home for children who have a life-threatening illness such as, cancer, brain tumours, lung and heart conditions. The paediatric community nurses help parents care for their sick child.
Young Lives vs Cancer
Young Lives vs Cancer is the UK’s leading cancer charity for children, young people and their families. When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world (and their family’s) can feel like it’s falling apart. They need special treatment because their cancer is different to adults’, they can only be treated in certain hospitals, and they often travel miles and miles to get there. The impact of cancer on young lives is far more than medical. Their anxieties are deep. Their education, mental health and social life suffer. Their future feels very uncertain.
