Your urgent action can rewrite the story for people with cancer.

Young female with cancer, who is incredibly ill laying in a hospital bed receiving cancer treatment.

Today, and every day, seven young people in the UK hear the words "you have cancer".

You can help us be there for them with specialist care and support when cancer has turned their world upside down.

“Being diagnosed with breast cancer when I was 37, at a time when I still thought I was far too young, brought me closer to the hugely important work of the charity.”

I always knew I wanted to work in advertising - I was fascinated by the power of language and ideas.

I became a trustee because I had the experience, both personal and professional, that led me to believe that I could make a difference to Teenage Cancer Trust. The people who work there are among the most talented and professional I’ve ever met, and I want to be able to use my skills to help them achieve our goals.

I was fiercely independent as a teenager and later diagnosed with breast cancer when I was 37, at a time when I still thought I was far too young to get cancer. This has brought me closer to the hugely important work of the charity.
