2020 has been a strange year in so many ways, and we have all had to adapt in some way or another.
We are delighted to have featured in the community magazine Discover Harlow, which showcases, promotes and champions Harlow and surrounding areas as great places to live and work. This month’s magazine is themed Reset and looks at what’s been happening in the area over the last few months, and how people are adapting to a new normal.
We are very grateful to feature in this issue and would encourage you to take a look and see who else is working hard to “reset” in the current climate.
You can see the digital issue here.
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.

Jess, 22, Teen, Acute Myeloid LeukaemiaWhen 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 LymphomaI 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.
