Meet Kirushni. Over the past few months, Kirushni has been documenting her journey as she battles cancer for a third time. She found Teens Unite a number of years ago, when she was in remission from her second diagnosis. Although she was recovering well medically, she needed the support of others in a similar situation who knew exactly what she was going through and how she was feeling.
Watch Kirushni's video below to get an insight into what it's like to overcome a cancer diagnosis as a young person, and find out more about how your support enables Teens Unite to bring young people like Kirushni together so they don't have to face their battle alone.
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.
