Cancer takes up enough space
Make room for joy!
HELLO AND WELCOME
Thanks for visiting our website! Join us for a creative and healthy retreat designed for people living with cancer. chance to make things, meet people, laugh, unwind, and simply enjoy yourself. No expectations. No pressure. Just a day that’s all about you. We offer one and two-day retreats with a carefully curated programme of creative activities, somatic therapies (breathwork, sound healing and gentle yoga), and fantastic, healthy food in beautiful settings. We run on donations and are currently funded by Macmillan Cancer Support.
Experienced practitioners lead every session with kindness and a gentle approach. Most of us have either had cancer ourselves or lived through the cancer journey of someone close to us. We are here for you to come together with others who have experienced cancer, to enjoy yourselves and take pleasure in creative and gentle healing activities, away from hospital and healthcare settings.
WHO CAN ATTEND?
Creative Cancer Retreats is a social enterprise. All our retreats are FREE for people with cancer and those affected by cancer. You are welcome to bring a friend/ carer/ family member. If you have been affected by cancer and wish to attend, you are welcome to get in touch. We prioritise people who are currently coping with cancer, or who have had cancer in the last few years but we understand that it affects
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Our retreats are FREE retreats for people with and affected by cancer, funded by Macmillan and private donations. We do, however, have a suggested donation to Macmillan via a Justgiving site so that they can help more people. We want our retreats to be accessible to everyone, so the donation is completely optional. If you have cancer and would rather not come alone you can bring a carer, family member or friend. Or if you want to encourage someone with cancer to come - you can come together.
WHERE DO THE RETREATS TAKE PLACE?
Our retreats are currently located in south-west London (Brentford and Richmond) and in Surrey countryside (Newchapel near Lingfield). We hope to expand to other suitable retreat venues around the UK and invite you to get in touch if you’d like to help us by offering a suitable venue for a retreat for free!
