Events

We have four Teenage Cancer Trust Youth Support Coordinators working within the Principal Treatment Centre, across the three Hospitals. They run various events each month across the region, some of which are for their particular hospital and some are joint events for the region. The events we offer are voted for by our patients.

Events are available to 13-24 year olds who are on active treatment or up to 2 years off treatment. Events are completely free! If you have never attended an event before you are allowed to bring a friend/ sibling along to your first one if that would help you feel a bit more comfortable.

You don't have to attend our events they are optional and they are great if you are looking to meet other young people with a similar diagnosis in a more relaxed setting

The events provided tend to be a mix of both virtual and face to face events, giving you the opportunity to meet other patients in your area

Your Teenage Cancer Trust Youth Support Coordinator can also refer you to national events and workshops which other charities.
