Share your Peterborough story with trust: Letter
On average, around 120 young people in East Anglia are diagnosed with cancer per year and as a charity, it is our job to help support these young people every step of the way. We offer specialist nursing and practical and emotional support from the day they receive the news they have cancer to the point at which they start to rebuild their lives after treatment.
Our specialist Teenage Cancer Trust unit at Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridge, and associated units in Norwich, Ipswich and Peterborough, have been supporting teenagers and young adults since the service opened in 2012.
This year, Teenage Cancer Trust turns 30 and we want to hear from anybody who has a connection with us – or with cancer in young people aged
13 - 24 - particularly in East Anglia.
Whether you are, or have been, a patient that has been supported via a Teenage Cancer Trust unit, someone who missed out on receiving specialist age appropriate support, a health professional or member of staff who has worked with us in the past or present, or somebody who has fundraised for us, we want to hear from you.
