‘Please help a young person with cancer this Christmas’ with the Teenage Cancer Trust

The Teenage Cancer Trust provides specialist care and support to 13–24-year-olds with cancer, helping at least 37,000 young patients over 15 years, funded by public donations.

  • This year, Newsquest closed a 12-month fundraising campaign for the Teenage Cancer Trust and the narrator asks readers to donate this Christmas by scanning the QR code.
  • The Teenage Cancer Trust provides specialist hospital units, nurses and youth support for 13–24-year-olds because cancer care on the NHS is not designed with young people in mind, leaving gaps in age-appropriate services.
  • On December 22, Jack’s temperature spiked to 40C, and hospital protocol required three normal days before he could leave the Royal Victoria Infirmary children's cancer ward, Newcastle.
  • Donations fund specialist nurses and youth support, helping young patients rebuild after treatment; Jack is now in remission, his reconstructed leg regains strength, and he started university in September.
  • Volunteers left a Yuletide hamper and staff described letters to Father Christmas on the cancer ward at about 10.30 pm on Christmas Day, urging readers to spare a thought for young patients.
