Thank you from all of our families whose life and endless treatment journeys have been made just a little easier as a result of your generosity. Whilst families will always need financial support whilst battling cancer we feel that we must do something about the lack of awareness of the signs and symptoms of Rb amongst parents* and healthcare workers. This lack of awarness means the cancer is silently stealing children's eyes, sight and lives.
A quick diagnosis of Rb can mean less treatment is needed.
Please take time to look at our new Appeal
http://www.globalgiving.co.uk/projects/stop-cancer-stealing-the-eyes-of-babies-in-the-uk/
and donate if you can.
Thank you
*1,030 parents of children aged 0-6 surveyed by MMR Resarch worldwide in April 2016. 50% had not heard of Rb and 36% were aware but didn't know much about it.
