Support for Young People
If you are a young person or care for a young person diagnosed with cancer, there are support groups which can help you with advice and support.
Hope Support
Hope is a registered charity helping young people when a loved one has a serious illness.
Depending on where you live, we support young people from the ages of five to twenty five.

Teenage Cancer Trust
Around 7 young people aged between 13 and 24 are diagnosed with cancer everyday in the UK. They need expert treatment and support from the moment they hear the words 'cancer'. We're the only charity dedicated to making this happen.
Teenage Cancer Trust has a specialist unit in almost every major NHS cancer treatment hospital across England, where we fund expert nurses, Youth Support Coordinators and Multidisciplinary Team Coordinators to provide the very best care and support for young people facing cancer.
We fund specialist outreach nurses who work regionally across the country, helping make sure every young person with cancer has access to our expert care, no matter where they are.
