At Childhood Cancer Ireland, we understand that nothing can prepare you to hear the words “your child has cancer.”

In this moment, everything changes. As a parent and survivor-led charity, we understand how this diagnosis pull the rug from under the entire family without warning. When that happens, Childhood Cancer Ireland is there, giving families the strength and support they need every step of the way. 

Our website is designed to support you, whether you’re looking for information, emotional support, or an opportunity to connect. Here, you’ll find information tailored to parents at different stages of this experience. 

We would like to thank parents who contributed to this page with information and insights from their own experiences.
