Improve cancer care for 250 children in Malawi

Dear supporters.

With your help hundreds of patients have received lifesaving cancer treatment in the last few years. But the increase in the number of patients accessing treatment - a very positive development - must be matched by increased resources. The team needs your help! 

Some project highlights from the last three months under the leadership of Professor Molyneux have been:

• A workshop on acute lymphoma
• Introduction of a new antifungal protocol
• Regular twinning support and training for local staff
• Ongoing patient support and care

Some objectives as the project moves forward in the coming months:

• Handover of the QECH unit to a Malawian paediatric oncologist. We will be very said to say goodbye to Professor Molyneux who has worked tirelessly to developed and transformed paediatric oncology in Malawi
• Increase nursing capacity
• Establish an outpatient facility at QECH
• Support patients through drug supplementation, welcome packs and follow-up
• Continue healthcare and community awareness campaigns

We appreciate your ongoing support; without the support of the global community many children suffering from cancer in Malawi would not stand a chance.

No child should suffer.

Best wishes

World Child Cancer team
