September Reading Challenge

I'm taking on a Reading Challenge in September for Teenage Cancer Trust

Anyone who knows me knows I love to read but I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump. The most books I’ve read in a month is around 6 so I’m hoping to beat this. 

So for the month of September, I’ve decided to get off my phone and back into my books. I'm taking on my own reading challenge and raising funds to help ensure no young person faces cancer alone. 

I'm taking on the challenge for Teenage Cancer Trust, the only UK charity who provides specialised nursing care and support for young people with cancer. I'd be grateful for your support.

Your donation, big or small, makes a difference. £25 could pay for an hour with a Youth Support Coordinator to help a young person cope with anxiety and isolation during cancer treatment. 

Thank you!

Guys! Thanks you so much! I’ve already reached my initial goal of £150 in less than 24 hours. I’m so grateful! I’m going to bump this up so we can donate more to the Teenage Cancer Trust. Thank you. 🫶
