We all want to see the next generation thrive - to do better than generations before. But there are a whole host of barriers holding children back, stopping them from reaching their full potential, and creating cycles that continue through generations.

Dr Andy Johnston: Immunotherapy is the future of cancer treatment
Sarcoma is deadliest cancer among children and young people, accounting for nearly one third of deaths among the 15-24 age group.
