Although our programme delivery model is not  completely defined and embedded, we have a strong framework and a dedicated team who are eager and committed to our strategic goals. We are developing our service in line with the future needs of families and as such we are looking to appoint an individual who is passionate about childhood acquired brain injury, team development and leadership.  By joining an inclusive, compassionate and forward-thinking team, you will be part of developing and growing our highly regarded charity.

Today, 12 children and young people will be diagnosed with cancer.
