Thrive Foundation, based in Cambridgeshire, supports families affected by childhood cancer. Founded by Lucy Ellerker-Jones after her baby son was diagnosed with leukemia, the charity was born from her desire to help others facing similar challenges.
Support includes mental health grants of up to £2,500 so family members can access therapy (paid directly by Thrive Foundation), a monthly face-to-face support group for parents and carers on the first Tuesday of each month from 7-9pm in the Huntingdon area, and soon, regular free family events. Families can self-refer by emailing hello@thrivefoundation.org.uk.
Current details about the support group and events are available on Facebook and Instagram (@thrivefdn), and more information about their work and story can be found at thrivefoundation.org.uk.
