Our aims
Raise awareness for teenage cancer
Whilst there are a number of various cancer charities across the UK, our work not only supports the projects they're already doing, but aims to focus on awareness as well as simply fundraising.
Educate young people
With the help of resources from organisations such as the Teenage Cancer Trust, we teach the pupils at Howden School the five common cancer signs to look out for, so they know when to get checked.
Raise funds
We aim to support NHS frontline services and plug the gaps that other children's cancer charities can't. When rising costs force them to say no, we're able to say yes. Your donation matters.
Be a part of your community
Partnering with local businesses and organising fundraising events from football matches to walks to car boot sales... we are determined to be a visible part of our community in Howden and the surrounding areas.
