Neil Ranasinghe for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

Neil Ranasinghe shared a post on LinkedIn:

“What’s the point of childhood cancer awareness month? Everyone knows about childhood cancer. My first short video for this month.

Look out for more short videos where I explain aspects of childhood cancer, and I’ll try not to look or sound like a robot.”
