Dragonfly Cancer Trust

About Dragonfly Cancer Trust

Dragonfly Cancer Trust supports children and young cancer patients with limited time and works collaboratively with cancer hospitals across the U.K. Cash Gifts of up to £500 are given to young cancer patients to spend on pain free days to create special memories with family and loved ones. The gifts empower young patients at a time when cancer has taken most control away. Memories are everything and ease the pain of losing a loved one. They passionately believe in the importance of happy memories and work tirelessly to make them happen for young people and their families.

Learn More About Dragonfly Cancer Trust

Dragonfly Cancer Trust supports hospitals in 23 major cities across the United Kingdom. The trust also sends huge boxes of arts and craft activities to children’s cancer hospitals and teenage cancer units across the country three times a year. Each box contains up to £250 worth of activities to provide relaxation, distraction and a sense of achievement during long stays in hospital. The Trust is an associate member of the Children and Young Person’s Cancel Coalition. Support can be given within a 24 hour period when needed. The Trust has supported over 1,000 children and young people.

Each request the charity receives is unique to the young person and their team never know what the next request will be, or how quickly they will need to act. Dragonfly Cancer Trust understands how valuable each day is for the young people they support and as a small organisation, they are able to make things happen extremely quickly, often having arrangements in place for a family within 48 hours of receiving the request.
