Fighting against cancer with Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust

June 16, 2016 Leave a commentUncategorizedBy Jamie Watson

We are very pleased to announce that we are now founding members of the Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust Commercial Partners Fight Club!

The Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust is the only UK charity that funds medical research specifically into cancer affecting young adults and teenagers. The charity also provides amazing support to improve the quality of life for teenage cancer patients during their frequent and debilitating stays in hospitals. These care measures help every young person to fight their illness and cope with the harsh regimes of treatment. Teenagers with cancer still need to be treated like other teenagers and support is so desperately needed in times when they feel isolated from school, family and friends. Every day, 7 young patients are sadly told they have cancer so we believe this is a great cause to support.

The Fight Club is still in its early days and we hope that our support will help the charity to grow and continue its fight against cancer in young people.

We look forward to getting involved with the charity and meeting other members at the launch event. To find out more about The Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust, visit their website.

I started my career as most people do – at the bottom. After leaving college I went straight into an IT position at a Huddersfield based Chartered Accountants. It wasn’t long before they expanded overseas, giving me the perfect opportunity to develop my career. Whilst there, I also completed a computing qualification at the University of Leeds and polished my skills in Microsoft, Cisco, Lotus, Checkpoint, Citrix, A+ and Novell.
