Children's Cancer Charity
Welcome to the Thrive Foundation!
(Also known as Opie Jones Foundation)
Why Thrive?
The journey through childhood cancer is about survival - not just through the cancer itself but surviving the impact on the whole family, the trauma of treatment and the unknown. Many families describe having to find a new normal after childhood cancer, and with that comes new challenges - a life that is never the same as before. We don't believe that new normal should just be about surviving we believe with the right support it is possible to 'Thrive' after childhood cancer. We exist to support families to do just that!
Standing with Families Through Childhood Cancer
Childhood cancer impacts entire families. After hearing your child has cancer, your life is never the same again. The impact is a far reaching, impacting all aspects of life, especially after the hospital stays and treatment is over. We exist to ease this burden by offering mental health grants, to provide some help with navigating the new normal for a family. Our mission is to empower families with compassion, choice, and community, ensuring no one faces this journey alone.
Our Vision
We envision a world where families facing childhood cancer are wrapped in unwavering support, with advanced treatments accessible to every child. We know first hand that by supporting the whole family the ripple effects of childhood cancer is contained. A child does not go through treatment alone, and parents and carers need support mentally, physical and financially. We want to see care that reaches the whole family.
