Meet Challenge

Since 1983, Challenge have provided support to over 25,000 children and families who are living with cancer - making a real difference to their quality of life.

Challenge is a not-for-profit organisation that supports children and their families living with cancer, from the time of diagnosis, throughout the treatment period and beyond.
 
We believe that children and families who are provided with fun experiences and practical support are better able to cope with the pressures of a life-threatening illness. Our support is holistic and aims to meet the needs of all family members – patient, parent(s) and sibling(s).
