Story

Our Great Escape is a unique 3.5 day event that provides peer support and expert information to 22 younger adults with cancer. It provides an opportunity to get away from the stresses of every day life and to spend time with others who "get it". We have experts on topics covering fertility, mental health, relationships and working after cancer, and we also have a good time! There is no other event like this in the UK - and with your donation we can continue to offer this free of charge to those who need it.

Shine Cancer Support

RCN 1146902
Shine supports adults in their 20s, 30s and 40s who have experienced a cancer diagnosis. Too old for children and teenage services but too young for traditional cancer support, we support the people who fall into a devastating cancer support gap.
