Supporting families across the North West and North Wales living with the life-changing experience of childhood cancers.
What We Do
Every family’s experience with childhood cancer is different and their needs are unique. We work with families and schools to provide support that is tailored to their journey.
We work with the whole family - patient, parent, siblings and grandparents - in recognising that every family’s cancer journey is unique.
We offer bespoke 1:1 support, practical and therapeutic help to ensure that life remains as normal as possible during and after an incredibly traumatic time.
At our support centre we offer 1 to 1 play sessions for children and their siblings affected by cancer as well as therapeutic support for older children, teenagers and adults.
We provide group activities to promote socialising, fun and normality within a safe and friendly environment, alongside others experiencing similar journeys.
"Saturday Sessions are a key point in our calendar. They allow us as a family to have much needed time away from the confines of treatment, stress and regime and to be a ‘normal’ family."
"The service is quite unique - you can't quantify it. The whole experience with The Joshua Tree is that the support is tailored to yours and your children's needs."
