Charity of the Year
Make childhood cancer your workplace’s cause for 2027.
<3%of cancer research funding goes to childhood cancer. Children deserve better.
Your company picks a charity every year. Put The Azaylia Foundation forward, and your whole team gets behind something that changes what children with cancer and their families face next.
We fund research. We fund treatment the NHS doesn’t routinely cover. We stand with families from diagnosis onwards. Your workplace can power all of it.
Why put us forward
Four reasons to make us your Charity of the Year.
-
Families at the heart.
We were set up in 2021 in memory of Azaylia, who died from AML at 8 months old. Everything we do is for children like her, and the families who love them.
-
Research that moves things forward.
We fund 7 PhDs at 4 leading UK universities, focused on earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment for childhood cancers.
-
Real impact in just five years.
Since 2021, we’ve committed over £1 million to research and treatment, and funded treatment for 21 children with cancer. Your team’s fundraising helps us reach the next child.
-
Fundraising your team will talk about.
Team challenges, events, awareness days and matched giving. We’ll plan the year with you so it fits your people and your business.

SubjectCharity of the Year nomination: The Azaylia Foundation
Hi, I'd like to nominate The Azaylia Foundation as our Charity of the Year for 2027. The Azaylia Foundation was established in 2021 in memory of Azaylia Diamond Cain, who died from AML (acute myeloid leukaemia) at 8 months old. They support children with cancer and their families from birth to 15, fund 7 PhDs at 4 leading UK universities, and have raised over £3 million to fund research and treatment for children with cancer. They're also launching two national programmes: the UK's first dedicated childhood cancer family support app, and Treatment Pathway Grants with their treatment research partner SACHA UK, giving consultants funding for treatments not routinely available on the NHS and collecting data to show the effectiveness of the treatment. Childhood cancer receives less than 3% of cancer research funding. As our Charity of the Year, we could help change that through team challenges, events, awareness days and matched giving. Their fundraising team (fundraising@azaylia.org, copied in) would be happy to talk to us. Their information… Registered charity no. 1195195 www.theazayliafoundation.com @theazayliafoundation Many thanks for your support.
