The Course

The Course: a space to reconnect and build

The Odyssey course is a five-day residential experience for people living with and beyond cancer. 

Each course brings together a small group of participants, supported by experienced facilitators. Through a range of activities and shared experiences, people are encouraged to try new things, take part at their own pace and focus on what they can do.

The experience is designed to challenge without being overwhelming. Activities are adapted so everyone can take part in a way that feels right for them. There is no expectation to be a certain way, or to talk about cancer, just space and time to step away from everyday life and focus on yourself for a few days.

Every course is different; you will not be given a detailed schedule in advance. This is a deliberate part of the whole experience, creating space to be present, to try new things and have time to focus on yourself.

Due to demand, places are limited and funded through the generosity of Odyssey’s supporters. If you are interested in taking part, you can find out more about whether the course is right for you – Take Part. 


“I had a wonderful time, made new friends and have realized that I’m far more capable than I thought following my cancer diagnosis. My confidence and my ability to deal with the day to day have increased way beyond my expectations. I was able to find myself again. During the treatment I was a patient and no longer able to decide about anything. When I came back I was at peace again”.
