Hello everyone and just wanted to say how thankful we are to the UCANTS Trust for making Daniel an honorary ambassador and as you know Becker and I visited recently and we were able to speak to some of the ambassadors about their experiences of being part of that wonderful charity and if you want to know more there are details at the end of the video but I hope you enjoyed the following it just gives you a flavour of what they're all about so thank you. Yeah when I was going through just after I had a lot of treatment and we used to have my ward was kind of like about six to eight of us and we were all the same ages and obviously because we were all going through treatment and quite hard times fun was quite limited but no we used to have a like a whole down projector screen in the like the the toy room so we used to like it took like eight to eight just to pull it down everything it was so old and rusty so you had to like pull it down find this little like projector thing it was like a wine door it was so old and yeah we used to put a down to YouTube videos on to watch them because it was just it was just it was so funny it just brought us a bit of like a bit of like relief and a bit of laughs and it was all together like we all just bonded over it because it was just all something that we did together and like no we always made a thing where if you went home and there was a new video no one watched it until you were back on the ward together you didn't watch it you don't watch it without your friends it was amazing just they were so good hello everyone i'm Natalie and one of the youth ambassadors for the YCT and i'm here with two of the other lovely ambassadors as well and i've been coming to the YCT now on and off for about eight years and i've met some amazing people while we've been here it's such a great place to come you meet loads of lovely people you get to relax you get to just nothing about being on treatment and you get inspired by everybody else's here as well the it's hard to explain how amazing the chair it is but when you're on treatment and you feel like there's nowhere else you can turn you feel so alone no matter how many people are around you it just it just makes you feel like you're in a safe place and you're not around a clinical area where the hospital is you're not having to worry about even being molly collared at home and you just don't know where to turn when you're here you don't even need to say a word and everybody understands exactly where you're coming from it's just it is amazing activities you can do them or you don't have to the good thing with the FC this is when for I joined here and I saw posters I thought there's no way i've got the energy to do any of that um them sports or the horse ride not any of it but this lovely lady you'll speak to next she managed to convince me to come along and where I thought I didn't have the energy to do a lot of things I suddenly got this base that of nowhere and the confidence hit the roof you realise that you cannot give in you have to carry on because if you give in that's it but if you carry on you know that you've got a bright future ahead of you and nothing will knock you down so that's me and I'll pass you over to the lovely one next to me I'm Ella Wies I'm 17 I've been coming to the YCT for about two three years now before I came here I live in a very isolated area down in Devon so I didn't really know anyone else with cancer but it was it's so nice being able to come here and just know like just instantly make a connection with everyone else because everyone knows what you're going through and they understand then the activities are amazing they never push you to do anything you you can't do even when you're like but like what Natalie said your energy just comes out of nowhere and it's amazing because you do stuff that you never thought you'd be able to do so it's just it's such a nice place to be it's nice to be away from just hospitals and treatments and just nice to be like just calm and relaxed for a bit my name is Krashton and I've been coming here since I was 14 years old and one of the youth ambassadors and I love coming down to the YCT house in Burmaid because it's so relaxing and you meet different people every single time you come down if you want to or you can come with the same group I did introduce Natalie to come down many years ago and she's been coming ever since as well and we just love it all the activities that we do are so different you don't feel pressured into doing them whether you can or not there's something to do for everybody
