THE ELLA DAWSON FOUNDATION 

The Ella Dawson Foundations aims to help young adults aged 18-30 years old living in the UK and their families and carers to live well through and beyond a cancer diagnosis by providing physical, psychological, nutritional and wellbeing support, resources and information. We offer wellbeing support through programmes, grant giving, social activities, funded hospital staff and holidays.
