Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

The funds raised here will go towards the creation of  a new Teenage Cancer Trust unit at Western General Hospital in Edinburgh. This Unit will be for cancer patients aged 16 – 24.

In the meantime, a unit for younger teenagers (13 – 16 year olds) is expected to open  in mid 2009 at The Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Edinburgh.  Teenage Cancer Trust is refurbishing an area at the hospital.

All funds for this Unit were raised locally by people like you and me.  As a family we have fundraised a fair bit because my son (Jade's brother) Aaron had cancer for three years.  He got his all clear in March thank goodness!  We know what a difference these facilities will make and want to help get them.

There’s never a good time to get cancer, but for a teenager the timing seems particularly cruel. Young people can get some of the most rare and aggressive forms of cancer. The emotional upheaval of adolescence can make a cancer diagnosis even harder to cope with.

Every day in the UK, six young people will have to face that diagnosis. Teenage Cancer Trust understands that teenage cancer requires specialist care and in fact, that young people have a much better chance in their fight against cancer if they are treated by teenage cancer experts, in an environment tailored to their needs.

 

For more information about TCT East of Scotland and how you can get involved, call Teenage Cancer Trust Ambassador, Lynne McNicoll on 07901 555 352

Undertaking a zipslide is a very scarey thing - but Jade and I know its nothing compared to having cancer or any of the treatments you need to fight it.  Please help us help teenagers like Aaron fight cancer.  Donate as much as you can!
