Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Cycling from Birmingham Royal Orthopaedic Hospital to The Christie Hospital Manchester ~ 100miles · 13 July 2024

We are dedicated to improving the quality of life and chances of survival for young cancer patients aged 13-24. We fund and build specialist units in NHS hospitals and provide dedicated staff, bringing young people together so they can be treated by teenage cancer experts in the best place for them.

Story

As a parent, witnessing my son Hayden undergoing treatment for Osteosarcoma (Primary Bone Cancer) has been a challenging journey so far. However, the support provided by the Teenage Cancer Trust has been nothing short of fantastic.

The trust's dedication to enhancing the lives of teenagers during and after treatment is truly inspiring. From organizing events and activities to providing educational support and relaxation, they have made a tangible difference in my child's hospital experience. It's heartening to know that young people aged 13-24 receive the vital care and support they need through the Teenage Cancer Trust. This charity stands as a beacon of hope, ensuring that no young person faces cancer alone.

Their commitment to funding specialized nurses, youth workers, and hospital units within the NHS is invaluable, offering dedicated support tailored to young individuals throughout their treatment.

The Teenage Cancer Trust relies solely on donations and fundraising efforts to continue their crucial work.

As I prepare to participate in a personal cycling event from Birmingham Royal Orthopedic Hospital to Christie Hospital Manchester on July 13th, 2024, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to give back.

My goal is to raise donations in support of this cause, knowing that every contribution will make a meaningful impact on the lives of young cancer patients including my son Hayden.
