Contact Magazine Past issues

The award-winning Contact magazine is a free quarterly magazine for families of children and young people with cancer.

Launched in 2004, it acts as an essential source of information and reduces the isolation that families with children diagnosed with a rare disease, such as cancer, inevitably face. Each themed issue focuses on one aspect of cancer in children and young people, and contains informative articles by childhood cancer professionals and stories from parents, young people and childhood cancer survivors.

 

Siblings

In this edition of Contact, we hear from several wonderful organisations who, through their various programmes, offer valuable practical and emotional support to siblings. Experts share helpful tips, advice, strategies, and resources for adults to help them support brothers and sisters, of all ages, of a child or young person with cancer. We also hear from parents and siblings themselves, who have kindly shared the challenges they’ve faced, as well as the support they’ve received, and from whom, along the way.
