The opportunity Teenage Cancer Trust has been given the amazing opportunity to fundraise at Argos stores all across the UK and Ireland through bucket collections in store. This is a fantastic chance for us to raise lots of money locally to help teenagers and young people fight cancer. We need you to sign up to join our National Collection Team to fundraise at your local store over the weekend of 30th and 31st July 2011. Please just give two hours to Teenage Cancer Trust! You can volunteer with your friends and family or by yourself. We really hope you can join us for this great weekend of volunteering, and help us raise vital funds for young people with cancer.
The organisation At Teenage Cancer Trust, we understand that young people with cancer require specialist care. We know how damaging it is to take a young person away from their everyday life, their friends, their environment, their family and put them in a cancer ward with small children or older people. Young people have a much better chance in their fight against cancer if they are treated by teenage cancer experts, in an environment tailored to their needs. So were working every day to make that happen. We dont believe that teenagers should have to stop being teenagers, just because they have cancer. So we fund and build specialist units for young people in NHS hospitals. Our units bring teenagers with cancer together with loads of new friends of their own age so they can support each other.
Alongside all of this is a medical team of teenage cancer specialists who pool knowledge to create a body of expertise thats second to none. They are backed up by our Nurse Consultants who provide clinical care, develop research, deliver professional education and ensure that standards remain as high as possible. Teenage Cancer Trust units arent like ordinary cancer wards. Everything about them has been designed to give teenagers the very best chance of a positive outcome. We want every young person with cancer in this country to have that chance. Teenage Cancer Trust aims build enough units so that by 2012, every teenager in the UK will have access to the specialist support they provide. Skills/Qualifications No experience is necessary - just a willingness to help.
We'll provide you with the information, support and guidance that you need in order to make the most of this opportunity. Bucket collectors need to be over 16. Under 16's can help, but only if collecting with an adult.
