Will you be a hero for children like Abbie?
In 2011, six-year-old Abbie’s life was tragically cut short just five months after diagnosis. With no cure and very few treatment options available, DIPG remains one of the most aggressive and underfunded childhood cancers.
Each year in the UK, around 40 children are diagnosed. Most won’t live longer than 9 to 12 months. Fewer than 1% survive five years.
But research gives hope. And with your help, hope grows stronger.

Give Just £1 to Fund Lifesaving Research

We know £1 doesn’t go far these days. You can’t buy a coffee.
Or a meal deal. You can’t even get most chocolate bars anymore!
But £1 can fund research.
£1 can give hope.
And £1 from thousands of people? That’s a movement.
This DIPG Awareness Day—17th May 2025—we’re asking you to be part of that movement.
This year, we launched Superheroes Against DIPG to show that big change starts with small acts. Our goal is to raise money to help fund research—giving real hope to families who have heard the words “there’s nothing more we can do.”
How you can be a hero



Together, We Are Abbie’s Army
Since 2012, we’ve been funding vital research and pushing for change in Abbie’s memory—and in honour of every child taken too soon by DIPG.
This DIPG Awareness Day, your £1 could mean a future with treatment options, with time, with hope.
Be a hero. Give £1. Share the mission. Help fund the cure.
