Financial support
Following a cancer diagnosis, there are added expenses for families with a child or young person with cancer. We can help with everything from accessing PIP and DLA, as well as support with travel and accommodation costs near to hospital for young cancer patients.
We offer financial hardship grants to families to help with costs like travel and food bills via our Specialist Social Work teams.
Get in touch about the support we offer using the chat button at the bottom right of the screen (Monday to Friday, 10am–4pm) or Call 0300 303 5220 (Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm) or Email us at GetSupport@younglivesvscancer.org.uk
