I’m James and I was diagnosed with a brain tumour aged 16.
My favourite memory of Teens Unite is the formal dinner we had at the end of our Activity Stay! It was amazing to see how close and connected we all became in such a short time!
I would tell someone else fighting cancer, that it will change you, but for the better and there is always a silver lining. Teens Unite and all the friends I made were my silver lining from my diagnosis!
As an Event Representative I help to review the Teens Unite calendar to ensure we are offering a range of events that are suitable, age appropriate and engaging for young people during any stage of their cancer journey. I support the Teens team in organising and reviewing events, which sometimes includes fundraising events too.
