Cancer Fund for Children is a passionate, purpose‑driven organisation with over 30 years’ experience providing vital support to children, teenagers and young adults diagnosed with cancer, as well as their families. We are committed to ensuring that no child or young person faces cancer alone, and our team plays a central role in delivering that mission every day.

As part of our 2026 -2030 strategy, we are expanding our services nationally across Ireland.

Our Connections Support Worker role is vital to our work ensuring families receive dedicated emotional and social support when cancer impacts their family.

The overriding remit and responsibility of the postholder is to work as an effective member of the Connections Team within Cancer Fund for Children (CFFC). Ensuring all families referred and eligible to avail of our services are supported to do so.  This role will ensure families receive skilled, compassionate and flexible over the phone/remote support initially and throughout their time with us. Families will receive the right information and are navigated to our direct support internally, or external support if required.
