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

"I'd love to volunteer, but I don't have the time."

It's one of the most common reasons people don't get involved.

The reality? Volunteering can be flexible, accessible and fit around your life.

Every contribution matters, no matter how big or small.

This Volunteers' Week, thank you to everyone who gives their time, energy and experience to support life beyond cancer ❤️

Many of the things our community relies on are made possible by volunteers choosing to help others navigate the realities of life beyond cancer.

If you've ever thought about volunteering but assumed it wasn't for you, we'd encourage you to think again.

It's far too nice a day to be googling symptoms. ☀️😂
And yet...

Remember when your body just did its job and you didn't have to think about it every day? Must be nice!

Anyone else?

Health anxiety can crop up even on the nicest days. If you're feeling it today, we're with you. ❤️

Our Community Manager Charlotte shares her experience of life beyond cancer, and why better support for cancer survivors matters so much to all of us at Mission Remission.

Because nobody should be left to navigate survivorship alone.

A lot of us end up holding onto things longer than we expected.

Clothes that don’t feel like us anymore.
Wigs. Colouring books (just me?). Piles of “I’ll deal with it later”.

And it’s not even really about the stuff.
It’s about everything life beyond cancer leaves sitting heavily around us.

So this month, we’re inviting you to join our Make Space Challenge! ❤️

1. Clear out a drawer, a cupboard, a corner of the room.
2. Sell anything you no longer need on Vinted, FB Marketplace, at a jumble sale... wherever works for you.
3. Donate what you can to Mission Remission.

The money raised helps fund support for life beyond cancer, including counselling, recovery cafés, fitness rehab and other safe spaces for cancer survivors.

Only joking - our post-cancer selves are pretty fab too. 😜
Tired and fab still counts! 💅

So much of life beyond cancer is tied up in identity.
And it’s hard to put into words if you haven’t been through it.

Are there parts of pre-cancer you that you miss, or do you prefer post-cancer you?

📢 Community call out claxon!

Laura just spoke with the Department of Health and Social Care about the realities of life beyond cancer, and they want to hear more about what support actually looks like in real life.

We’d especially love to hear your experiences around:
• Rehab
• Psychological support
• Support at work after diagnosis

They’re particularly interested in examples of when support from employers has genuinely helped, because that can help shape what good support looks like!

If you’d be happy to share, you can comment below or send us a DM if that feels easier. ❤️
