We are the first breast cancer charity in the UK to solely create awareness amongst young people, with the aim of instilling the knowledge and tools they need to get to know their bodies. We like to talk about a serious message in a light-hearted way, empowering people to start healthy habits for life. We want everyone to have the best possible chance of surviving breast cancer. Ideally we want to live in a world where all breast cancers are diagnosed at the earliest stage possible, at which treatments are more effective and survival rates are higher.
At Coram we champion children’s rights and wellbeing, making lives better through legal support, advocacy, adoption, and our range of therapeutic, educational and cultural programmes. Through our work we understand better what works for children and young people, and we use that insight and experience to engage with government, local authorities, social workers, teachers, carers, and families – all those in a position to make a difference - to help deliver better practice, systems, and laws. Established as the Foundling Hospital in 1739, today we are a vibrant charity group of specialist organisations, supporting hundreds of thousands of children, young people, and families every year.
