A good sense of humour and a strong snacks game are also encouraged!

More information:

Our walks and hikes are led by experienced guides with lived experience of a cancer diagnosis. We understand the needs of cancer survivors and prioritise care, awareness, and support.
Our hikes are not about personal bests, speed, or summit times. They’re about breathing deeply again, trusting our bodies, sharing stories, enjoying quiet moments and finding strength in fresh air and friendship. Above all, we aim to create a sense of belonging. Whether you come for the movement, the mountains, the snacks, or the shared understanding, this is a space where recovery is honoured, stories are respected, and no one has to walk alone.
