#ItsAboutTime
For families living with serious childhood illness, time is everything.
Not just for tests, treatments and the best care possible. But for the things that modern medicine can’t do.
Time for playing. For making a mess in the kitchen. For being naughty.
Time for brothers and sisters. For help with homework. For a treat. For a kick-about.
Time for parents. For just a second to let your guard down. For talking. For listening. For a cup of tea.
It’s the things that we often take for granted. But ask any family that we support and they will tell you: time makes all the difference.
Because even in the shadow of a serious childhood illness, it’s the everyday moments that help a family keep being a family.
It’s About Time.
Right now, too many families are coping alone. With no support. Without a second spare for any of this. But with your help, we can reach them.
We give each family a Family Support Worker to help them through. Not a website or a helpline. A real person who’s there for whatever they need, for as long as they need. For all the stuff that medicine can’t do.
