What We Do

Surviving a brain tumour is tough. It doesn’t come with a guidebook.

Living with the life long side effects of treatment (balance issues, hearing loss, tinnitus, headaches…) does little to boost self-confidence.

What does help, though, is being in the company of others who have been through the same experience.

Harnessing the often underestimated healing power of nature, many of our activities take place outdoors.

Expeditions That Redefine Recovery

We don’t just take on challenges. We redefine what recovery can look like.

In 2024, we launched our first overseas expedition. A team of ten reached the summit of Mount Toubkal, North Africa’s highest peak. For many, it wasn’t just a climb. It was a declaration of life after brain surgery, of strength reclaimed and limits rewritten.

In 2025, we returned to Morocco. Not to climb, but to cross. Our challenge? A five-day, 100km trek through the Sahara Desert. Eight brain tumour survivors walked side by side with supporters, guides and medics, navigating sand dunes, heat and horizonless skies. It really was a journey of resilience, connection and radical possibility.

And we didn’t stop there. In 2026, this time via a new, longer route, we took on Toubkal and the High Atlas once again. Because recovery isn’t a destination. It’s a way of moving through the world.

And the adventure is coming home…

Our expeditions aren’t just about going overseas. We’re building an annual programme of UK challenges, giving our community opportunities to step outside their comfort zones, discover new places and achieve things they may once have thought impossible.

We’re starting with the Yorkshire Three Peaks, a 24-mile challenge taking in Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough. It’s the beginning of something bigger: a growing programme of UK adventures alongside our overseas expeditions.

Whether it’s across deserts, over mountains or along trails closer to home, every challenge has the same purpose: to inspire and empower people living with the impact of brain tumours through recovery and beyond.

Our expeditions and challenges are designed to be inclusive and accessible. We welcome people with lived experience of brain tumours who believe in challenging assumptions about recovery. You don’t need to be an athlete, just open to adventure, community and the belief that healing can happen far beyond hospital walls.
