“We’re really delighted to be able to play a part in celebrating the bravery of all the young people who have encountered cancer by supporting Cancer Research UK’s Little Star Awards.

“When a young person is diagnosed with cancer, often they face gruelling treatment which affects not only the young person but also impacts on the lives of their family and friends.  This is why the Little Star Awards are so fantastic in helping to recognise the brave young heroes who are fighting the disease and are also crucial in helping to raise awareness of the advances being made in children’s cancer.

“We’d really like to encourage anyone who knows a brave young person to nominate them for an Award and we’d also ask everyone to please help raise as much funds as possible to fight the disease, to give all young people the possibility of a bright future.

"Every child nominated for a Cancer Research UK Little Star Award is a real winner and it is a privilege to be able to support such a great cause.

Having recently witnessed a young family friend battle the disease so bravely, I’m determined to help raise awareness of progress in cancer research and bring a little bit of happiness and a sense of pride to these inspirational children and their families."

“All young people who are diagnosed with cancer demonstrate such an incredible fighting spirit that I’m honoured to be supporting Cancer Research UK’s Little Star Awards again this year."

“The Little Star Awards are such a great way of recognising the bravery and courage of young people who have been affected by cancer, whilst also celebrating the amazing progress that is being made in the fight against children’s cancer.  I’d urge anyone who knows an inspirational child to please nominate them now for this fantastic award.”

“Raising awareness of the Cancer Research UK Little Star Awards is a real privilege for the England Footballers Foundation.  Every child diagnosed with cancer goes through such a battle and their strength is incredible. These awards can help to brighten the lives of the children and their families who are all affected by cancer, as well as highlighting the research that is continuing to make progress in the fight against children’s cancers.”

“It’s really great to be backing Cancer Research UK’s Little Star Awards. The awards are a brilliant way of recognising the true bravery of children diagnosed with cancer and the tough time they go through. We want to encourage anyone who knows an inspirational child to show their support and nominate them for this fantastic award.”

“Me and the England lads are thrilled to be supporting Cancer Research UK’s Little Star Awards. The bravery of kids diagnosed with cancer is unbelievable, each and every one is a true hero to us and these awards really help recognise that.”
