We hold our bake sale to raise funds towards the vital work that we do in supporting the holistic wellbeing of our children diagnosed with brain tumours, other cancers and their families.
This is because childhood cancer impacts the whole family. About 1 in 4 families will loose more than 40% of their household income due to childhood cancer treatment-related work disruption. 1 in 3 other families will face other work disruptions such as having to quit work or change jobs. This is true in all our families.
The siblings of children with cancer are also at risk of developing emotional and behavioural issues, such as anxiety, depression and post-traumatic-stress disorder due to the secondary stress of caring for or living with a sibling with cancer. The symptoms of this post-traumatic stress disorder is well documented in parents whose children have completed cancer treatment. If unaddressed, theses symptoms can result in longer term trauma. The incidence of many cancers can be prevented by changing behaviour or treating them effectively by EARLY screening and detection. For children and young people, prevention may not be possible as some childhood cancers begin developing before the child is even born.
Please stop and consider the emotional, practical and spiritual wellbeing impact of a cancer diagnosis in a child or young person and on their family. Click our 'GoFundMe' link if you are able to donate. Thank you.
...and enable us reach more children and their families.
... for honouring our fundraising bake sale to support the wellbeing of our children with brain tumours, other cancers and their families.
Thank you to our community who helped us raise £404. 95.
If 1000 people, took 2mins out to read this section and donate £1 each, we could reach up to 15 families with our fresh fruit and vegetable boxes, to reduce fruit and vegetable poverty and make healthy nutrition more accessible to our children and siblings.
Childhood cancer affects us all.
Please donate towards our holistic (emotional, practical and spiritual) wellbeing support service.
We invest in LOVE, to
help rebuild lives so that healing can begin and thrive.
If 500 people donated £1 each, it would help us buy up to 17 beautiful floral bouquets to reach more homes and bring joy to our child AND the family around them.
If 250 people donated £1 each, it would pay for 1year's worth of postage stamps to send birthday and milestone cards to our children, their and parents annually!!
That means we can bring our community together, through this shared experience. Our bake sale is another opportunity to fundraise and raise awareness of the holistic wellbeing impact of cancer in children and the families around them.
Cancer affects at least 1,800 children every year in the UK. According to statistics, this is a ratio of about 1:500 children developing cancer between the ages of 0 and 14years.
Together we can support them.
Post the COVID-19 pandemic, there is greater awareness of the existing gaps and inequalities in the access to, experience of and outcomes of better holistic wellbeing support for our children with cancer and their families.
This is Why We Do, What We Do. We work collaboratively with the NHS, local & national government, Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise organisations to offer improved holistic wellbeing (emotional, practical & spiritual) support services that bridge the support gaps in the palliative care system and ensure our Children and Young People diagnosed with brain tumours, other cancers and their families experience better outcomes.
We are committed to bridging this support gap. Support us today and click 'GoFundMe' below to donate towards our cause.
Together we can reach more children and their families
Thinking about childhood cancer is difficult.
However, offering support in the period of a cancer diagnosis or the point following the passing of a child, can be the difference between isolation and a sense of social connectedness.
Supporting children and family carers through clinic appointments, language translation, counselling, understanding Advance Care Plans, offering wellbeing gift boxes at milestone points or navigating the SEND pathway is ultra important.
Your support will help us improve access to the right services, by the right people at the right time for our children and the families that care for them and know them best.
We Bake With Love
Childhood cancer affects us all and many beautiful people from our community came together to support our fundraising effort.
We want to thank Haley, Tracey, Rita, Jas, Rania, Layal, Satwant and many more who's hearts, minds and hands were invested in our bake sale!
From sweet home made vanilla cupcakes, chocolate tulip cupcakes and oreo cupcakes, to vanilla sponge cakes, home made shortbread biscuits, savoury puff puff balls and spicy samosas.
You all worked very hard to make our bake sale a wonderful experience that had something for everyone.
Making it accessible
We are a volunteer-led charity and rely on the good will, generosity and commitment of our volunteers.
Our vision is to offer 'tailored holistic wellbeing support' at the point of need and 'catch' each child diagnosed with a brain tumour or cancer and the family around them, from diagnosis and beyond.
We host various events to bring people together to create a community of like-minded people committed to raising funds and improving the wellbeing support offering available to children and young people with cancer and their families.
Click below to Join #TeamDLF Family. Building a supporting and inclusive community for our children with cancer and their families, will require your Time and be sustained by your Love.
Thank you.
We support our Cherry Blossoms (bereaved) Families
...because a terminal cancer diagnosis in a child is impossible to wrap your head around. When the worst happens, time seems to stand still for everyone connected to that child.
The grieving process starts from the point of diagnosis and many parents and siblings will struggle to come to terms with this terrible this reality. We need your support. Click to learn more.

If 500 people donated £1 each, it would help us buy up to 17 beautiful floral bouquets to reach more homes and bring joy to our child AND the family around them.

Set up for families by families who understand.
We do What We Do because we have lived experience from caring for our daughter Daniella (pictured).
We offer a pioneering service that is drawn from our lived experience. The objective is to make sure that other children diagnosed with cancer terminal and non-terminal and their families are supported and our community is stronger.
