Care and support

Being diagnosed with cancer can turn your life upside down at any age. Children, teenagers and young adults have specific needs due to their age that can create challenges at this difficult time. 

We provide specialist age appropriate care and emotional, psychological and social support to young people under 25 in the East Midlands who have been diagnosed with cancer, and to their family and friends.

Helping you along your journey

On this website you will find helpful advice about our services, hospitals and treatment centres, as well as helpful advice for all stages throughout and beyond the journey.

Cancer care for those aged 0-25 in the East Midlands is provided by the Children’s and Young Persons’ Integrated Cancer Service and the Teenage and Young Adult’s Integrated Cancer Service. This website brings together the two services to create a single, easy to use resource for all users.

0-25 Cancer Services East Midlands is a partnership between University Hospitals of Leicester and Nottingham University Hospitals
