Stories
Our work gives us a personal view on what it's like to live with cancer and face challenges like access to the hospital and treatment. The families, children and communities that we’ve met inspire our ideas and, often times, solutions. Every one of them has a story worth sharing.
Esmé
Wendy discovers that her one-year-old, Esmé, has developed a rare brain tumour. Esmé is the youngest child of four.
Seraph
It’s the middle of winter, 2018, and Cass – a dedicated mother of two – has received some shattering news. Holding tight to her precious four-year-old son, Seraph.
Sidney

The first few months were very difficult. His mother, Francesca, a single parent of two, was unemployed at the time and initially received no financial support from the government.
