Our aims as a charity

Gold Geese is a small, local charity providing tailored practical and emotional support to families of children and young people fighting cancer in the Southend and Basildon areas.

Gold is the colour for childhood cancer. Geese stick together, they fly huge journeys together.

Our slogan is We Fly Together, because Geese are a team and no one is left behind.

Gold Geese also raises awareness of childhood cancer signs and symptoms, including delivering training workshops to childcare practitioners and parents.

And we encourage people to donate blood and register as potential bone marrow donors, as these are needed in some cancer treatments.
