A note about psychological support

Every family responds to a cancer diagnosis differently. Psychological and psychosocial support can include professional counselling, child-life services, peer support, family programmes, support for siblings, and help from social workers. If a child or family member is experiencing persistent distress, anxiety, or changes in mood, consider speaking with the child's healthcare team about appropriate professional support.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO NAVIGATE THIS ALONE

There is support for the child — and for the people beside them.
