Delighted to be asked to speak this earlier this week at #ChildrenWithCancerUK Research Conference and share my (somewhat single minded and bossy) thoughts on collaboration and how much of a bigger impact we could achieve as funders…

Half way between Belfast and Dublin and an excellent first day at the inaugural All-Island Paediatric Oncology Conference, exploring how closer collaboration and an all-island network could improve care for children and young people with cancer (and talking how @cclguk.bsky.social can help!)

I'm so proud of the event, and of our brilliant team who brought it all together, ably led by our fantastic Director of Engagement Claire Shinfield. So now, a brief rest before we start work on an even better conference next year. See you in Manchester on 16-17 March 2026!

As ever, a real highlight was our Member Awards, recognising excellence in children and young people's cancer care, as well as the poster exhibition with around 150 submitted abstracts on display as posters highlighting the huge diversity of work taking place within our community

We've received such outstanding feedback from so many of the 750 or so attendees on all aspects of the event, and it was great to see our new name and brand in action. Our new strapline - Expertise. Progress. Community. - was truly reflected at the conference!

Once again, @cclguk.bsky.social is speaking with #OneCancerVoice in signing this joint letter to The Times with 50+ colleagues across the cancer community. We welcome and support @wesstreeting's cancer plan - a significant step forward. But to be successful it must be backed with funding.
