"I really do think every young person who is diagnosed with cancer deserves to be supported by Teenage Cancer Trust - they really do make all the difference. The support I received has completely changed my journey and they are a large part of why I am still around today."
"Finding out you need treatment for cancer is scary and frightening for anybody, but especially so when you are a teenager, and at the very beginning of your adult life. This is why Teenage Cancer Trust is such a vital organisation, because they give support to teenagers during some of the worst times of their lives, and make sure that they are not alone."
"I can honestly say I feel very lucky to have had such fantastic care from everyone involved in my cancer journey"
"Despite me having all these problems, I live every day like it is my last. I still go out at weekends with friends and try to be a positive."
"Since I was diagnosed it's been my intention to turn the experience into a positive by raising awareness of melanomas"
"Teenage Cancer Trust gave me so much confidence to do everything I do, and I wouldn’t be where I am now without them."
"Even though I wasn't being treated on a unit, I was assigned a Teenage Cancer Trust team who would come out to me, both at my local hospital and at home."
