The online group offers support, fun activities such as cookery and quizzes, peers who understand, and activities to help promote wellbeing, such as Yoga and meditation.

Holiday groups are made up of similar ages and groups can also be made up of friends you made in hospital.

Holidays are available for all the school holidays and based on the private land of a working farm with good access for those with mobility challenges. Between the 2 buildings is a courtyard patio area with a swimming pool and a large games room.

Cancer can tear your world apart and at an age where everyone else seems to be moving on with their lives, university, relationships, careers – the diagnosis of cancer can bring all of that to a halt. The Youth Cancer Trust helps reduce the sense of loneliness, which often accompanies long stays in hospital and time off school. Long term friendships are formed. Families are given a much deserved break knowing their child is having fun and being looked after. The activities provided on a holiday range from horse therapy, water sports and arts and crafts. The emphasis is on fun and relaxation.
