Beyond delighted to see Roger get this much deserved recognition for all he’s done for young people with cancer and @TeenageCancer.
Legend is an overused word but it’s the right one here. So is Sir.
Congratulations Sir Roger. And thank you 🙏

@KateCollinsUK, Chief Executive at Teenage Cancer Trust, says: “Today’s announcement by the Chancellor, of a £29bn funding boost for the NHS is a welcome step towards improving NHS Services. However, this must not result in a wasted opportunity for young people with cancer. (1/5)
Sad news from our friends @CwC_UK this morning. Eddie created a deep legacy after profound personal loss. All of us @TeenageCancer send our condolences to Eddie's son Cliff, all who loved and knew Eddie and the team at the charity.
Anyone who spends any time with me ends up knowing just how heart-burstingly proud I am of my son & how important football is in our house. So hats off to all the women’s team players @the_nomads (where my lad plays) @JordParry @JayCatton & all involved on this achievement 🥳⚽️👏
@AdranLeagues Women’s Northern Champions 24-25. What an achievement by all players across womens and girls section. Huge well done all involved 👏⚽️👍. @JordParry @RossJones1976 @redfern438 @SumSumner @denvergreen11 @danroach_ @MasonBlackwel13 @adamangerer #champions
Happy Birthday to the most remarkable champion for young people with cancer, @TeenageCancer Honorary Patron Roger Daltrey!

This is Luke Tinsley, manager of Sleaford Town Junior Football Club U8s. His team had never won a game so Luke promised to dress up as a Lion for a match when won their first game. The team managed to secure the win just before Christmas. So true to his word this weekend Luke happily dressed up as a Lion for the match. 🤣🤣

A very #MerryCuthmas and thank you to all our @TeenageCancer pals (especially the caterpillars!) @AldiUK 🐛🎄
A naughty caterpillar? 🐛 A festive choir? 🎼 Some nervous lawyers? 🚓
#MerryCuthmas everybody! 🎄👀
Proud to back these urgent calls to improve cancer care as laid out by our Citizen’s Jury.
Young people with cancer have shared their experiences to identify these urgent priorities that the healthcare system should focus on.

So grateful to @Telegraph and their readers for backing young people with cancer as part of their Christmas Charity Appeal 2024. Young people with cancer have never needed @TeenageCancer more than they do right now.

It is crucial that the views and experiences of teenagers and young adults with cancer, their families and expert frontline staff, are included in these conversations to help shape the 10 Year Health Plan and the future of cancer care. @TeenageCancer stands ready to help (2/2)
An unusual afternoon yesterday, representing @TeenageCancer at 10 Downing Street to mark the start of the consultation on a Civil Society Covenant.
So struck by the many remarkable leaders at the event (while keeping grounded by Larry the cat having any interest in any of us!).
