Following our office move to the Old Police Station in Hoddesdon, we are excited to launch our most extraordinary fundraising event to date! Could you stay overnight in one of the 16 original cells to help us support more young people fighting cancer?
Our Lock In or Bail Out fundraising event takes place on 18th June, and is an authentic, light-hearted experience for you to conquer on your own, with a friend, or as a team building opportunity.
You will be putting in some good behaviour, following a crime you haven't actually committed, all in the name of charity! After checking in at the custody desk, pulling on your convict suit and having your mugshot taken, an itinerary awaits you of police questioning, outside recreation in the yard, a phonecall home and inmate activities...we can't wait!
All luxuries must be left behind, and contraband is taken very seriously indeed!
What will be your crime? And will you do the time?
You can sign yourself up or nominate someone else to take part. One week prior to the event, you will have an important decision to make - will you lock in or bail out?
The minimum sponsorship to take part is £500 - should you wish to avoid your sentence, you will need to match the sponsorship amount you have raised in order to bail out.
This is a fundraising challenge with a difference. Following cancer treatment in young people, 80% will experience anxiety and depression and 83% will experience loneliness, where their lives feel trapped and restricted by cancer.
In your one night of solitude behind bars, the money you raise will help fund the activities we organise, which bring these young people together so they are not facing cancer and the lasting effects alone.
Come on...you can do it! Regsiter your interest here.

Detailed below are our events for Teens, Volunteers, Fundraising and Challenges.
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.
Teens Unite isn't just a charity to me, it was the beginning of restarting my life.
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.
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.
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.
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.
