Navigation was the theme of Chai Cancer Care’s dinner, where two young North Londoners explained how the support charity had helped them to navigate a future path.

In the appeal video, Jack Morgan, 21, and Laura Moses, 29, spoke candidly about the impact of cancer on their lives, moving the 700 guests at the Roundhouse in Camden to donate £1.2 million.

Mr Morgan was 20 when diagnosed with undifferentiated carcinoma of the eye. Ms Moses was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and the BRCA gene at 27.

Both have made it their mission to raise awareness of cancer among young people.
