Story

The Ben Saunders Foundation (BSF) has been started to raise funds to support Children and Young adults with cancer within the UK.

I ( the founder) Ben Saunders was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer sarcoma attached to my heart which I have been fighting since October 2019. It has spread into my lungs and I have faced many challenges along the way. These include two major open heart surgeries, 6 rounds of very intense chemotherapys which I am now currently back on!

These are just some of the things I have experienced along my cancer journey and I am looking to help and offer whatever I can alongside my family and the foundation to offer support to young people with cancer like myself.

I have been fortunate enough throughout my journey so far to have received the support I have, whether that being mentally, physically or a short holiday with friends recently to Centreparcs. I feel everyone in these circumstances deserves to be given as much support and happiness through the very difficult times they will come across.

Please follow ,share and raise as much awareness as you can to help us achieve our goal of helping people in these difficult circumstances.

Thank you. Ben Saunders. Founder (BSF).
