So proud to be part of Kamran’s Ward Activity Day at @OUHospitals! We had a blast with our @Fortee_project Pixformance station, bringing smiles to children affected by #cancer. The best feedback? "I love parties at the hospital!” @oxford_brookes @OxInAHR

πŸŽ₯ Missed the ICCD event 2025? Watch the full recording now! This year’s ICCD policy event, organised and hosted by MEP @AndrasKulja (@EPP, Hungary) on 4 February 2025 with the participation of @SIOPEurope and @cci_europe, was a great success! The event brought together healthcare professionals, policymakers, and patient advocates in the @Europarl_EN to discuss the delicate and complex issue of access to cross-border care, research, and training for children with cancer across Europe. πŸš€ πŸ”— If you couldn’t join us live, you can now watch the full discussion on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/watch?v=Detbggi6… Let’s continue working together to reduce inequalities in paediatric oncology across Europe! πŸ’› #ICCD2025 #InternationalChildhoodCancerDay #ChildhoodCancer #CrossBorderCare
