About the Kid's Summer Challenge

Join thousands of other families, who are taking on the Kid's Summer Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer this August.  All to raise funds to support children and young people with cancer.

The challenge is simple - complete 1 mile a day, every day for 31 days in August, in whatever way the kid's want. They could run, walk, skip, swim, wheel or scoot, or whatever way they want to cover the distance. Every mile counts.

This is the kid's challenge, their way 😍

Why your support matters - make a difference this August

Children and young people with cancer are facing a long, exhausting summer with days spent many miles from home.

This August, children, young people and families going through cancer treatment will need to make early morning journeys to hospital and weary drives home. Parents will sleep in uncomfortable hospital chairs and spend hours worrying about the uncontrollable costs of hotels, petrol and food. Meanwhile, siblings will be left at home - their family separated at the most worrying time.

But your support changes everything.

It means the whole family can stay in our welcoming Homes from Home, close to specialist childhood cancer treatment centres. For families, it’s more than a free place to stay. It’s a place that feels like home. It’s having the time for a home-cooked meal together or a cuddle with a bedtime story. But most of all, when everything else is uncertain, it’s a chance to just be together.

Cancer doesn’t have to mean families are torn apart. That special moments are lost. You can keep families together this August.
