BBC Lifeline Appeal
We are honored that Neuroblastoma UK featured on the BBC Lifeline Appeal on Sunday, 26 January at 13.50 on BBC One.
Join us in spreading the word and tuning in to this powerful appeal. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children facing neuroblastoma and their families.
Our vision is a world in which every child diagnosed with neuroblastoma is cured.
We facilitate research that will lead to more effective treatments and ultimately a cure for every child diagnosed with neuroblastoma.
Every week in the UK, around two children are diagnosed with neuroblastoma, an aggressive and life-threatening cancer.
Thanks to you, we’ve funded nearly £9 million of pioneering research to develop new, more effective and less punishing treatments for children with neuroblastoma.
But we need to do more. Donate or get involved to help save young lives.
What is neuroblastoma?
Neuroblastoma is a rare cancer that develops from cells left behind from a baby’s development in the womb.
Personal stories

Neuroblastoma Events
Neuroblastoma UK is awarding £1.1 million in its 2024 grant round to fund new innovative research into neuroblastoma. New therapeutic approaches, pathways to improve existing treatments and exploration of an MRNA vaccine are just some of the projects to be funded in the 2024 grant round; with an emphasis on translational research which can be rapidly transferred from the lab bench to bedside.
