Last week, nurses and psychologists from across Europe came together for our PanCare webinar “Cognitive Functioning and Psychosocial Needs/Support after CAYA Cancer.”

Psychosocial support is a crucial part of long-term follow-up care and it is important to recognise potential risks and understand how survivors experiencing psychological distress or cognitive difficulties can be supported.

More than 35 professionals joined the session to learn from our speakers, exchange experiences, and discuss cases in breakout rooms.

A big thank you to Cecilia Follin, Alied van der Aa and Laura Beek for sharing your valuable insights and expertise with us during this webinar!

The PanCare PLAIN language summaries are now available in Ukrainian!

What began as an English resource has grown into a European collection.

ℹ️The PLAIN summaries offer reliable, easy-to-read information about late effects and recommendations for long-term follow-up care.

They support survivors, their families and friends, and non-specialist healthcare providers to better understand potential late effects and the surveillance recommended to monitor them.

🌟 A big thank you to Halyna Moroz, the НДСЛ Охматдит, the Shupyk National Healthcare University of Ukraine and the parent organization Батьки онкохворих дітей for conducting the translation to Ukrainian.

to PanCare 2025 in Jahorina 🇧🇦

Tucked away in the mountains, last year’s PanCare meeting in Jahorina brought together a truly inspiring community.

From meaningful discussions to new collaborations, the energy and commitment in the room were a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when this community comes together. Thank you Jelica Predojevic from the University Hospital Banjaluka, Jelena Roganovic Roganovic from the Children’s Hospital Zagreb for helping us organize such an inspiring event.

Yesterday and earlier today, the consortium came together to reflect on the progress made so far and discuss the next steps of the project.

Bringing together partners from across Europe, this meeting motivates us to continue working towards our shared goal: improving long-term care and quality of life for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors.

It is inspiring to see how much can be achieved when expertise, perspectives, and commitment come together. We look forward to building on this momentum!

What happens after cancer treatment ends? For many adolescent & young adult (AYA) cancer survivors, the journey doesn’t stop there. Long-term physical, mental, and social challenges can have a lasting impact on their quality of life.

That’s where PanCare4AYA comes in. Together, 29 organisations across 14 countries are working together to improve Survivorship Care for AYA cancer survivors across Europe.

This EU-funded initiative is developing and testing a person-centred survivorship programme to improve long-term follow-up care, enable early detection of late effects, and better support the unique needs of adolescents and young adults.

A replication toolkit for scaling up in new countries and clinics will also be made available via hashtag for every European AYA Cancer Survivor. Because every survivor deserves the right care – for life.
