Teenage Cancer Trust provides life-changing care


The Teenage Cancer Trust provides life-changing care and support so that young people in the UK don’t face their illness alone. It has 28 specialist units in NHS hospitals for people between the ages of 13 and 24 to be treated in an environment designed for them. A £30,000 donation can fund a Teenage Cancer Trust nurse for 1,000 hours. As well as medical care, nurses offer emotional and practical support to help sufferers deal with the challenges of cancer. It costs £25,000 a year to maintain a Teenage Cancer Trust specialist unit, including maintenance, operational costs, and Wi-Fi and TV contracts.
