This April Teenage and Young Adult Cancer Awareness Month shines a spotlight on the distinct needs and experiences of young people with cancer, which are so often overlooked.

The Under 16 Cancer Patient Experience Survey aims to understand the experiences of cancer and tumour care among children and their parents/carers. The results will help improve children’s cancer services across England.
