We need to extend our support to more young people living with and beyond cancer. Currently, for every young person we help, nine more are left waiting due to limited funding. This project will ensure more young people get the vital support they need to rebuild their lives.

Beneficiaries
Every two minutes, someone in the UK is diagnosed with cancer, with the fastest-growing incidence among those under 24. The long-term impact on young people’s mental and physical health, education, employment, and social lives is profound. Teens Unite ensures they’re not overlooked, empowering them to thrive with, and beyond, their diagnosis by rebuilding confidence, connection, and hope for the future.
We provide tailored support that meets young people where they are—emotionally, socially, and physically. Through digital and in-person events, stays away from home, mentoring, and 1:1 support, we help them rebuild confidence, develop life skills, and re-engage with education, work, and their peers—empowering them to move forward with purpose.
