Aldi Are Proud To Partner With Teenage Cancer Trust

Teenage Cancer Trust is the only UK charity dedicated to providing specialised nursing care and support for young people aged 13-24 with cancer. Each year, their specially trained nurses and youth workers support hundreds of teenagers and young adults across 28 specifically designed units in hospitals nationwide, as well as helping many more in local hospitals and at home. In addition, the charity organises post-treatment events to bring young people together to support each other - whilst having some well-deserved fun!

It’s our goal to help raise awareness of this vital cause and work together with Teenage Cancer Trust to ensure every young person with cancer gets the support they need, when they need it, from diagnosis, through treatment and beyond.

How Aldi Are Helping

In 2017, Aldi and Teenage Cancer Trust formed a charity partnership, aiming to raise £5 million to support young people with cancer. Following multiple milestones and achievements, Aldi have now raised more than £12 million, and aim to raise £20 million by 2031.

How We Do It...

Aldi colleagues have taken part in hundreds of challenges, including skydives, marathons, mud runs and hikes, and they continue to think of new and fun ways to raise much needed funds for Teenage Cancer Trust. Many Aldi colleagues also donate the leftover pennies from their pay slips to the charity! There is never a dull day in Aldi and colleagues continue to amaze us with their efforts. However, it isn’t just our colleagues, Aldi customers support the charity by purchasing products we sell in aid of the charity, but be quick - once they’re gone, they’re gone!

£10m of our funding is enough to support:
