2010 British 10K London run · 11 July 2010 ·

Teens Unite supports young people fighting cancer to live their best life, while others search for a cure. We inspire young people to recognise their potential now and in the future and empower them to live every moment to the full.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page Teensunite Fighting Cancer.

As many as six teenagers a day are diagnosed with cancer in the UK alone.

Teenagers face a complex and often bewildering transition from children's care to adult services. This period of their life is unlike any other time, filled with change, adjustment and emotional unrest.

We want to help improve the quality of life for these young people. Living with one of these illnesses is unthinkable for most people, for teenagers fighting these illnesses they are also compunded by the same insecurities and self doubt every other adolescent goes through.

When a teenager is diagnosed and requires continuous treatment, it places a tremendous strain on all members of the family. We know our Respite Homes will allow these teenagers the chance to take some time out and give them the opportunity to spend time with others in similar situations to themselves.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
