September Reading Challenge

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

This September, I'm taking on my own reading challenge of reading 100 pages every day of the month, 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. 

This is a cause very close to me, as many of you may or may not know I lost my best friend to brain cancer when he was 17 and every day I'm still impacted by that grief. If by doing this it means just one person doesn't have to lose their best friend then I know it will be worth it. 

Thank you!
