Thank goodness for padded cycle shorts

Adele continues her training through France and tells us what she has discovered....

"Just an 8km ride today as I spent the morning discovering the delights of padded cyclewear - happy to report it works! The wind was strong whenI ventured out but I cycled up to and around Bacilly. It's amazing to discover some lovely little lanes near by and NO traffic. I head back with the wind behind me a to Les Linettes, our house overlooking the bay of Mt San Michel."

Volunteering with Teens Unite has changed my personality and outlook on life. When I hear all the amazing things the teens say about Teens Unite, I can tell they mean every word.

Nathan, 23, Volunteer

Teens Unite isn't just a charity to me, it was the beginning of restarting my life.

Jess, 22, Teen, Acute Myeloid Leukaemia

When Elliot started receiving the support of Teens Unite, I could see a change in him straightaway. His outlook on life was becoming positive again and I gained strength from seeing my little boy accepting what had happened and starting to move forward.

David, Parent to Elliot, 18, Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma

I needed help and that's where Teens Unite came in. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and the reason I met Teens Unite was to save my life.

Harry, 20, Teen, Testicular Cancer

With Teens Unite, I finally realised that I could climb out of this massive hole that I had been digging because I wasn't alone anymore.

Leanne, 21, Teen, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

If it wasn't for Teens Unite, I wouldn't be where I am now. They have been really supportive and given me the strength to push myself and not give up.

Derry, 20, Teen, Brain Tumour

My wife inspired me to volunteer following her fight against cancer. I wanted to help others carry on living their lives the way she did. And that's exactly what Teens Unite does.

John, 64, Volunteer
