Why support Teenage Cancer Trust
We create world class cancer services for young people in the UK, providing life-changing care and support so young people don’t have to face cancer alone.
Every day, seven young people aged 13-24 hear the words “you have cancer”. They will each need specialised nursing care and support to get them through the toughest times they may have faced.
We’re the only UK charity dedicated to meeting this vital need. By choosing to run for Teenage Cancer Trust, you can help us to reach every young person facing cancer and make a huge difference.
So you know we’re the real deal, these are our registered charity details: 1062559 (England & Wales), SC039757 (Scotland).

Click ‘Join Group’. Join the group for inspiration and support. Raise money for young people affected by cancer by setting up a fundraiser on JustGiving or Facebook.
Once you’ve set up your fundraising page and receive your first donation you can claim your t-shirt here.
We are asking everyone who would like a t-shirt for the challenge to fundraise so that the costs of their t-shirt are covered.

The only thing that matters is that you challenge yourself. Do as much as you can. Every squat helps.
Of course! The challenge officially starts in February, however, if you would like to start early or a bit later that is absolutely fine. As long as you challenge yourself, that is all we ask.
