The Teenage Cancer Trust Unit (TCTU) is a dedicated TYA Unit within the Royal Marsden Hospital in Sutton, where patients aged between 16-24 years can receive their cancer care and treatment in an age-appropriate clinical setting, staffed by both Adult and Paediatric Nurses.  We are the Principal Treatment Centre (PTC) for the South Thames region, caring for patients with a wide range of Haematology and Oncology Cancers, including delivering Stem Cell Transplants. TCTU has multiple features and resources such as a complementary therapy suite, chill out room and a roof garden, alongside an extensive holistically focused MDT that can help to improve and enhance patient experience.

Working at the Royal Marsden will provide you with many opportunities, both academic and clinical. There is plenty of educational support available within the unit from experienced Practice Educators. The education team will support you in gaining a module relevant to cancer care at level 6 or above, if you do not already hold this.
