The incredible efforts of our Dry July supporters have a profound impact on the lives of mums with cancer, who also have young children.
Thanks to you, we can continue providing resources that help families understand and manage a cancer diagnosis.
Since our Dry July campaign, we’ve distributed:
- more than 1,000 comfort bears, with recordable hearts for mums to record a special message for their children
- more than 600 books, to help families have conversations about cancer.
Mums frequently tell us how deeply they appreciate the bears in particular, which can provide immediate comfort to their children, helping them sleep better and cope with the confusing emotions the can be facing.
Each week, we provide about 30 mums with tailored, practical support designed to ease the burden of managing family life while undergoing treatment. This can include support with house cleaning, nutritious family meals, fuel vouchers and more, alleviating everyday stresses.
Thank you for helping us provide practical support so mums can focus on what’s really important – being a mum.
