Our aims
Raise awareness for TCT
Teenage Cancer Trust offer expert care and support for every young person facing cancer in the UK. They have dedicated facilities and events specifically aimed at young people.
Educate young people
With the help of TCT's resources, 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 Teenage Cancer Trust 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.
