Challenge Cancer Through Adventure

If you, or someone you know, has cancer or other terminal illness, we can help you fulfil that next (or first!) great adventure experience.
For example, climb a mountain or a rock face, take a balloon ride or a parachute jump, a canoe trip or whitewater rafting, an abseil or a bungee jump.

Tell us what what you want to do and we'll help you make it happen. Click here for details of how to apply.

Challenge Cancer Through Adventure was established by 7 Peak District based adventure activity enthusiasts together with their families and friends. All seven either have, or have had, cancer.

They wanted to enable other people with cancer or a terminal illness to 'live a dream' and also to challenge people's perceptions of cancer and terminal illness

Challenge Cancer Through Adventure aims to support adventurous activities for anyone diagnosed with cancer or a terminal illness living in or around the Peak District.

For some, Challenge Cancer may provide support for their first adventure experience, for example an abseil or a parachute jump.
For others it might support one more great adventure.
