Mission Remission

Mission Remission Life after cancer isn't just dodgy veins and a few check-ups. We help cancer survivors move forward Life after cancer isn’t always a happy ever after.

Survivors face long-term psychological, social, and physical issues. Shockingly, 500,000 UK people experience long-term ill health following cancer treatment.

2.5 million people face cancer in the UK, yet survivors currently receive little to no support to help deal with the aftermath of treatment. In fact, more widely, there’s sparse information on life after cancer, with scant clinical research. Nine out of ten survivors find the end of treatment just as traumatic as the original diagnosis (Breast Cancer Care) and Mission Remission is dedicated to helping the millions of people facing the challenges of life after cancer. We support cancer survivors move forward after treatment to live happy, healthy, independent lives. Our mission is to improve the experience of cancer recovery for everyone. We help our 15k+ community by running support groups, online meetups, bookclubs, our ‘walk and talk’ activity campaign and fitness sessions. We’ve got grand plans for this year and want to support the NHS to:
-Help people feel happy, healthy, & independent after treatment
-Help people get diagnosed with cancer earlier & reduce cancer deaths
-Build strong personal relationships between people and their health teams
-Improve the experience for those dealing with cancer

We spend so much time hoping to hear the word "remission". But what does it actually mean once we're there?

Sometimes, it feels like getting our lives back, and other times, cancer still takes up more space than we'd like. And what remission means can change as the months and years go by.

💛 When you hear the word remission, what comes to mind?

Join us in October for our next online book club for cancer survivors!

Right now we're reading Flesh by David Szalay.
Szalay’s sixth novel won the 2025 Booker Prize and is an ambitious story, following the main character through life and shining a light on the big questions of the human experience, like living in a body yet being somehow separate from it. ❤️

Fancy it? Would love to see you there!

Cancer: the educational experience absolutely nobody enrolled for. 😅

Suddenly you're fluent in medical acronyms, know which veins behave themselves, can review hospital parking like a seasoned travel critic and have very strong opinions about waiting-rooms.

So, let's hear it...
👇 What do you now know WAY too much about thanks to cancer?
The more niche, the better.

Chelle spends her time helping our community get moving, rebuild confidence and feel better in their bodies.

This month, she’s also taking on a sponsored challenge to raise funds so we can support more cancer survivors. 💛

Chelle’s raising money for Mission Remission because she knows first-hand how important it is to have the right support when you’re navigating life beyond cancer. If you’ve got even a few quid to spare, let’s get behind Chelle and help her smash her target!

Last week we held our first Community Catch Up to talk about something we know affects far too many people: financial insecurity during and beyond cancer.
And, as ever, our community had plenty to say. 💛

We talked about the reality of losing income not just during treatment, but months or even years later. You challenged our thinking, shared your views on our response to Government and came up with ideas for how we can build public and political support for change.

This is exactly why these conversations matter. Our work should be shaped by the people who have lived it.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and shared their experiences and ideas.

📣 Want to be part of the next Community Catch Up and help shape where we go next? Let us know in the comments or get in touch.

We reckon our community must be sitting on a goldmine of extremely niche life advice. 😅

The pillow that changed everything. The one thing permanently kept in your handbag. A tiny routine that makes mornings easier. The friend who knows when NOT to ask how you are.

What’s your secret weapon for making life beyond cancer a little easier?
Drop it below. You never know who else might think “WHY did nobody tell me about this?"

Cancer has a funny way of changing what you’re willing to spend your energy on.

Resting when you need to. Changing plans. Putting yourself first. Saying no to protect your peace.

💛 What have you stopped apologising for since cancer?

If you can get a few of your favourite people together for a munch and a giggle, you can raise money to improve life beyond cancer. 💛

No huge event, complicated planning, mountain hike or athletic ability required!

Just invite a few people round, put some food on the table and ask everyone to donate what they can.

Your brunch will help fund our work supporting people to live well beyond cancer. Fancy hosting one? We're on-hand to make it easy and fun!
