Comment: | Teenage Cancer Trust focuses on the particular needs of UK teenagers and young adults with cancer, leukaemia, Hodgkins and related diseases. The organisation has a number of fundraising activities throughout the year, primarily to raise money for the creation of specialist teenage units in NHS hospitals. Each unit costs a minimum of £750,000. Teenage Cancer Trust has already designed and built eight, which are in London (two sites), Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Leeds, Sheffield and Liverpool. The Charitys target is to have a total of twenty, so that every teenager with cancer in the UK has access to these excellent facilities. Teenage Cancer Trust also funds and organises support and information services, conferences and educational material for patients, their families, schools and health professionals |
