UK GOVERNMENT:
IN 2021, WE LOST OUR 6-YEAR-OLD SON, HUGH, TO A RARE CANCER AFTER A 10-MONTH FIGHT.
After his passing, we created It’s Never You to support parents of children with cancer offering mental, emotional, and financial help.
Unlike neonatal care, there is no statutory right to leave or pay when a child is diagnosed. 70% of parents report depression or anxiety, while most families lose half their income.
We are campaigning for Hugh’s Law: protected leave and pay for parents in crisis because being present should not cost everything.
