The Adventures of Captain Chemo

For younger patients we've developed an easy guide to cancer diagnosis, treatment and care: The adventures of Captain Chemo.

Visit the Captain Chemo website.

Captain Chemo and his adventures are based on the comic strips created by Ben de Garis, who was a young patient at The Royal Marsden. They have been turned into interactive computer games to help cancer patients worldwide.
