YPI
Are you taking part in the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative (YPI) and want to support a local charity?
By choosing Clan, you are helping to support children and teenagers in your own community affected by a cancer diagnosis.
Our focus is ensuring people live well through their or their loved one's cancer journey. As a result of this, we support other social issues as well.

What does your £3,000 mean for Clan?
It means helping up to 130 children and teenagers, right here in your community.
It costs approximately £23 to provide a 1:1 session with one of our Children and Family practitioners, and to supply the appropriate tools required to help a child or teenager navigate their cancer experience.
Tools like our 'Teenage Self Care Kits' can help with general self-care, and might include items such as a notebook, pencil, hand cream, chocolate treats, eye masks, marbles/stones and an expandaball in a tote bag.
The tote bag will be signed by the practitioner in one of the 1:1 sessions and can be personalised to the taste of the client.
Notebook and Pencil
The pencil will have an upbeat quote to inspire and motivate. The notepad can be used in - or out - of the 1:1 sessions as a journal, a safe space to write down whatever is on their mind without judgement, or the client can list additional items they'd like to add to their kit!
Eye mask and sweet treats
Sleep can often suffer during times of stress, so the mask can help with this, or just be used to help unwind.
It's often the little things, like a hot chocolate that can put a smile on your face during a difficult time. This can encourage teenagers to take a moment to recharge.
The 'Expandaball'
This is sometimes used to help with breathing techniques. As you open and close the ball at the pace of your breath, your mind wanders, taking the focus away from your breathing. As a result your breathing automatically slows down - helping reduce feelings of panic and release anxiety.
