Kent Cricket is delighted to announce that Teenage Cancer Trust is the Club’s Charity partner for 2025, the only UK teenage cancer charity here to give every young person facing cancer the best care and support.
Every day, seven young people aged 13-24 hear the words “you have cancer”. They will each need specialised nursing care and support to get them through it. Teenage Cancer Trust the only UK charity dedicated to meeting this vital need – so no young person faces cancer alone.
Teenage Cancer Trust offers unique care and support, designed for and with young people. They fund specialised nurses, youth workers and hospital units in the NHS, so young people have dedicated staff and facilities to support them throughout treatment.
To mark World Cancer Day on 4 February, the Club’s players, coaches and staff are proud to support the important work of the Teenage Cancer Trust through their #WalkWithUs initiative. The initiative encourages individuals and teams to come together, walk, and show solidarity with teenagers fighting cancer.
This global campaign is to raise awareness and funds for young people living with cancer, and we invite you to join us in making a difference.
