TCCL specialise in supporting families in their local area who have a child under the age of 18 who has been diagnosed with either cancer or leukaemia. They work with local health services to provide additional supportive care during treatment and up to 3 years after treatment is completed for those who need it. They also support free holidays for families in their Lodge.
The lodge is a holiday home in St Andrews which is available free of charge to families who are affected by childhood cancer and leukaemia. It is a 4 bedroom detached house in a quiet residential part of St Andrews which is a vibrant seaside town on the east coast of Fife, Scotland.
As well as being an area with great holiday facilities, St Andrews is within 30 minutes of Ninewells Hospital which can provide all the services which might be needed urgently by a child with cancer or leukaemia.
Families will be able to have respite from the arduous treatments often involved for children with cancer and leukaemia, by enjoying a holiday together.
