Teens Unite heads to Loughton

0

Following the success of Teens Unite’s annual It’s a Knockout event in Hertfordshire for the past seven years, the charity is bringing the fun-filled day to Loughton on Sunday 16th September 2018.

Teams will compete against each other on the inflatable assault course to be the first to overcome a series of challenges and obstacles along the way. The concept is based on the hit 1960’s TV comedy game show and is the perfect opportunity for companies, sports teams, friends and families to embrace their competitive side.

Seven teenagers are diagnosed with cancer every day in the UK and Teens Unite’s It’s a Knockout event will raise vital funds and awareness to support the charity’s work in uniting young people and rebuilding their lives following a cancer diagnosis.

Teens Unite is the only charity in the UK to provide ongoing emotional, social and physical support throughout a young person’s cancer journey. By organising workshops and residential stays, young people can come together and meet others their age in a similar situation, rebuild their confidence and self-esteem and learn new skills.

Entry to spectate at the event is free of charge. Aside from the It’s a Knockout competition, there is fun for all the family, with a BBQ and a selection of stalls and games to enjoy.

Debbie Pezzani, CEO and Founder, Teens Unite has said: “We’re incredibly excited to bring It’s a Knockout to Loughton. As the charity continues to grow, we will be having more of a presence in Loughton and the surrounding areas and we look forward to introducing our work to new supporters.

The day is a fantastic opportunity for companies, sports teams, community groups, friends and family to come together and make a difference to the lives of young people.”

Taking part in Teens Unite’s It’s a Knockout competition costs £400 for a team of 10, £200 for a team of five and £40 for an individual place.
