We are delighted to announce that Alessandra Bellini, Chief Customer Officer for Tesco, has been appointed as Chair Trustee for Teens Unite.
As Chair; Alessandra will govern a board of seven trustees and will work closely alongside Teens Unite’s CEO and Senior Management Team to deliver the long-term vision of the charity.
Alessandra is a Senior Executive with experience in Marketing and Communication across many different markets and FMCG Categories. She joined Tesco two years ago, as Chief Customer Officer.
Alessandra joins the Trustee Board during a period of significant growth for Teens Unite. The charity has launched a capital appeal to open The House of Teens Unite; the first retreat on UK mainland for young people who have been diagnosed with cancer.
This dedicated facility will provide short-term accommodation, leisure facilities and space to hold more workshops and activities to increase the level of support available to young people from across the UK.
Teens Unite’s CEO and Co-Founder, Debbie Pezzani, has said: “We’re delighted to welcome Alessandra to Teens Unite. Her passion for our cause, alongside her professional skills and expertise make the perfect combination for driving the charity forward.”
Alessandra Bellini said “I’m delighted for the opportunity to Chair the Trustee Board at Teens Unite. It’s simply not right for any young person to face cancer alone and I look forward to working with the Trustees to help the charity increase the level of support available to young people across the UK.”

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.
