Odyssey 2026 Appeal

Campaign by Odyssey

Odyssey is a charity which enhances the quality of life for people with cancer through imaginative programmes of challenging and dramatic activities using the outdoors.

Story

Cancer might have changed you, but it hasn’t changed you.

For many people, finishing cancer treatment isn’t the end of the story. It can change their plans, their energy, and what feels possible. But it doesn’t take away who they are.

Ringing the bell, returning to work, being told things should start to feel “normal again” - these moments can bring relief to those around them. But the reality is often more complex.

You might hear them say they’re ‘getting there’, while knowing something doesn’t feel quite the same.

And while you want to help, it’s not always clear how.

Odyssey exists for this moment, when support falls away, but the impact of cancer doesn’t.

Odyssey deliver life-changing residential courses for people living with and beyond cancer, not focused on treatment, but on rebuilding confidence, reconnecting with their bodies, and rediscovering a sense of who they are.

Through shared experiences and new challenges, people begin to see themselves differently again. Not defined by cancer but moving forward with a renewed sense of who they are. More capable, more confident, more themselves.

Five days with Odyssey is a turning point. A moment where someone realises they can do this.

That they are still undeniably themselves.

Right now, there are people ready to reconnect with themselves but they’re on a waiting list. We need to raise £11,000 to run another programme this year. Without it, people ready to reconnect with themselves stay where they are, unsupported, disconnected and existing.

Your donation will mean someone doesn’t have to wait any longer to start finding themselves again.

Cancer might change a lot but it doesn’t change who someone is.

Together, we can help them rediscover who they are.
