You can also sponsor a young person by donating securely online:
When young people are diagnosed with cancer, the effects upon them, their families, their friends, arguably their school and local community are profound. Testimonial evidence confirms that these young people desperately need to meet with peers who are undergoing similar trauma in their lives, relieving the sense of isolation they feel during illness and at such a critical age. The emphasis at The Youth Cancer Trust is upon regular enjoyments and improvements in confidence, relaxation with peers and communication. There is no other organisation, charitable or otherwise, which specifically targets this need as its core function. It sounds simple – but it is subtle and much needed.
Sponsor An Activity
During a Youth Cancer Trust holiday, the groups choose which activities they would like to take part in. These activities include:
- Horse riding
- Water Sports
- Dry slope Skiing
- Go-karting
- Ten Pin Bowling
- Sailing
It costs £150 to sponsor an activity day for a group of 8 young cancer patients.
If you would like to sponsor an activity day please email Georgina for further details or send a cheque made payable to ‘Youth Cancer Trust’ and post to: Youth Cancer Trust, ‘Sponsor an Activity’, 5 Studland Road, Alum Chine, Bournemouth, BH4 8HZ
