London
Teenage Cancer Trust's London Appeal is raising £2.6million for our Young Peoples Unit at the new Ambulatory Cancer Centre at University College London Hospital (UCLH). We are also raising funds to support our existing Teenage Cancer Trust unit at UCLH.
We plan to extend the excellent service we currently provide in London by funding a new ambulatory unit at University College London Hospital. We will be providing a brand new floor of this new Cancer Centre specifically designed for young cancer patients aged between 13 and 24.
We need to raise £2.6 million for this project. Please get in touch if you would like to donate or to get involved.

One of our charity partners, Devonshires, took some young patients and their families from UCLH to watch Cinderella on Saturday 10th December. The fun filled day gave the young patients a unique opportunity to have a backstage tour and a chance to see the costumes up close. The children were sworn to secrecy as they were shown some of the tricks and special effects used in Panto.
