We’re Celebrating World Cancer Day- Are You?

World Cancer Day is just around the corner and we’re ready to join other charities and organisations around the globe who are uniting in the fight against cancer.

To mark World Cancer Day on 4th February, we’re embracing this year’s theme of ‘We Can. I Can’ and we hope you will too.

World Cancer Day is an opportunity for you to pledge your support and make a personal difference. For the young people we support, overcoming the social, emotional and physical effects cancer leaves behind can be just as challenging as the diagnosis itself, which is why we’re here to offer that long-term support every step of the way.

This World Cancer Day, we’re asking everyone to take on a challenge of their own. Are you in?

We’re committed to saying ‘WE CAN unite more young people diagnosed with cancer’, but we need you to say ‘I CAN take on a challenge’ to help us achieve this goal. You won't be the only ones putting yourselves to the test- members of the Teens Unite team are also supporting World Cancer Day by signing up to the British 10k run in July.

We’ve got some really exciting challenges in the diary- including three new trips overseas, adrenaline filled days and runs through our capital city. Whether you’re looking for a cycle to train for to help keep up your New Year’s resolutions or a challenge you can just turn up to, we’ve got it covered!

Over the next couple of weeks we will be telling you more about the challenges on offer including cycles through Croatia and Costa Rica, a trek through the Grand Canyon, Tough Mudders and half marathons...but if you just can’t wait, browse through our calendar now.
