Due to the situation with the coronavirus and the government guidance, we have unfortunately had to close the office and holiday home to protect our staff and beneficiaries.
Please don’t feel alone – Youth Cancer Trust is running a secure online group for young cancer patients and those with late effects from having had cancer as a young person. If you would like to join the group, please email us
The group offers support, fun activities such as cookery and quizzes, peers who understand, therapeutic support and activities to help promote wellbeing, such as Yoga and meditation.
