Teenage Cancer Trust

Teenage Cancer Trust is the only UK charity providing specialised nursing care and support for young people with cancer. We’re here for anyone diagnosed with cancer aged 13-24, and their loved ones too.

We exist because cancer care wasn’t made for young people. Without us, a young person diagnosed with cancer today would find themselves lumped together with small children or much older adults.

We fund specialist nurses, youth workers and hospital units within the NHS, so young people with cancer get the sensitive, individual care and support they need at this unique and critical life stage.
