Welcome to Edinburgh's favourite children's charity
Children with Cancer and Leukaemia Advice and Support for ParentsWhat is CCLASP?
CCLASP is an Edinburgh based children's charity, set up in 1994 to help support children and groups of families, to express and share the feelings, anxieties and the horror of having a child with a life threatening illness.
The charity was established by Valerie and Bill Simpson, after their 6 year old son Robert was diagnosed with adult Leukaemia. The very stressful 10 months of Robert’s gruelling treatment of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and finally a bone marrow transplant devastated the whole family, and so they decided to use their experience to support the newly diagnosed families and set up a comprehensive support group.
