Over the next few weeks, I'll be taking on a series of challenges in aid of Teens Unite fighting cancer, to raise awareness of the devastating impact of COVID-19 on their operations and their income. Since March, they have been unable to bring young people together in their usual way and challenge, inspire and support them as they usually do. However they have adapted and have overcome this challenge by continuing to provide workshops online and in doing so have extended their service to young people who may not have previously been able to access it. 

They have succeeded in their aim of #stayingunited but the long-term future of the charity has been severely impacted by COVID-19 restrictions, as their usual fundraising activities have not been able to take place. As a result, they are running at 20% of their usual income in 2020. For this reason, I'll be taking on 20 challenges, pushing myself physically and mentally, with the aim of raising some funds.

I know this is an extremely difficult time for many people but I would appreciate any help you can offer at all to support the incredible work of Teens Unite, even if it is simply sharing this on. 

Cheers

"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. When you're faced with cancer, plenty of people will tell you what you can't do, but we show these young people what they can do; not letting the 'c' word hold them back or define who they are."
