Patients & families

We understand that parents and families of children diagnosed with cancer can be overwhelmed, exhausted, and searching for certainty in an uncertain world. Your choices can feel like a trade-off between hope and fear, and you must place extraordinary trust in the hands of others.

We know the importance of hope that’s grounded in progress. We want to give you reassurance that you are not alone, and that your child’s treatment is informed by the best science available.

We turn our compassion into evidence, and we aim to turn discovery into care that delivers better outcomes.

Our function is the connection between innovation and treatment, ensuring that every child in WA benefits from the best the world has to offer. That means thinking about the whole child. Not just treating the cancer but caring for the person. From the very beginning of treatment, we consider what a good life after cancer looks like, working to minimise late effects and support your child's long-term health and wellbeing.
