We will all be touched by cancer at some point.
For those diagnosed, the journey is emotionally and physically draining and one you must face with strength and determination. For the caregivers and the family members, it is a complex rollercoaster of emotions where you often feel broken, lost and alone.
The Biggest Break strives to create an experience where our guests’ rediscover who they were before cancer entered their lives. They can pretend for just a moment that their lives are without challenges and celebrate each day.
The Biggest Break will give back the ability to be a family again – instead of a family with cancer.
It is our wish that each of our guests on their break get the chance to laugh a little louder, hug a little more and recognize that love defines their life story, not cancer.
And most importantly, it is about building up strength and spirit to fight what lay ahead. To cross the finish line together – and realise that cancer won’t define you.
