Dr Anisha is a GP working in Horsham, West Sussex, as a partner, lead for women’s health and speciality in General Medicine and Respiratory Medicine. In September 2018, Anisha was unexpectedly diagnosed with advanced bowel cancer. Her ambition is to use her unique perspective and experience as both a doctor and a patient to raise awareness of cancer and it effects. Using her social media presence, via @doctorsgetcancertoo, she is working to increase the voice of those living with and beyond cancer, especially at a young age, as well as health promotion and education. She is an active campaigner raising awareness of how cancer affects life during, and after cancer, and regularly appears as a medical expert on ITV's Lorraine. Through her role as Beneficiary Lead on our board of trustees, she helps to guide our service provision, ensuring every young person feels supported and empowered after diagnosis, through treatment and beyond.
Detailed below are our events for Teens, Volunteers, Fundraising and Challenges.
I needed help and that's where Teens Unite came in. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and the reason I met Teens Unite was to save my life.
With Teens Unite, I finally realised that I could climb out of this massive hole that I had been digging because I wasn't alone anymore.
If it wasn't for Teens Unite, I wouldn't be where I am now. They have been really supportive and given me the strength to push myself and not give up.
Volunteering with Teens Unite has changed my personality and outlook on life. When I hear all the amazing things the teens say about Teens Unite, I can tell they mean every word.
Teens Unite isn't just a charity to me, it was the beginning of restarting my life.
When Elliot started receiving the support of Teens Unite, I could see a change in him straightaway. His outlook on life was becoming positive again and I gained strength from seeing my little boy accepting what had happened and starting to move forward.
