We offer global support to tongue cancer patients aged 18–64, ensuring no one faces diagnosis or its lasting impact alone. We unite the patient voice to campaign for better, age-appropriate care and work with researchers to improve survival and quality of life outcomes.

Story

We are asking our community and supporters to help us raise £20,000 by the end of March 2026 to cover the essential costs that underpin everything we do at Young Tongues. Ensuring our patient-led work can continue, grow responsibly, and deliver projects that are already funded and ready to go.

“We have exciting, partially funded projects lined up. But project funding alone doesn’t keep a charity running. This campaign bridges that gap.” Barbara Fountain, CEO & Founder

The reality behind patient-led work

The funding we’ve been able to secure is restricted, which means it can only be used for specific projects. It cannot be used for the everyday work that keeps Young Tongues running safely and responsibly. Fund the Foundations supports the people, digital tools, safeguarding, governance and community care that allow patient-led work to happen safely, consistently and responsibly. Without flexible funding, we cannot keep the infrastructure in place that makes our impact possible .

How you can help

Every action helps: whether you donate, fundraise in your community, or share this campaign with others, you help move us closer to our goal.
