The Nest of Courage Supporting Mothers

---

 At The Human Nest, we understand that when a child faces cancer, the entire family is affected  but the emotional wellbeing of mums is often overlooked. The Nest of Courage exists to hold space for mothers walking this difficult journey. Here, you’ll find comfort, care, and a community of people who truly understand.

The Nest of Courage is a dedicated programme supporting mums emotionally when their child is living with cancer. Through gentle workshops, 1:1 support, and peer circles, we create a safe and nurturing space where women can feel seen, heard, and uplifted.

✔ Emotional Wellbeing Workshops
Gentle sessions focused on managing stress, grief, and emotional overwhelm.

✔ Safe Circle Gatherings
Small, confidential groups where mums can share openly and connect with others who understand.

✔ 1:1 Listening Sessions
Private, compassionate conversations with a trained mentor.

✔ Practical Resource Hub
Support with navigating healthcare systems, community services, and mental wellbeing tools.

✔ Rest & Recharge Retreats
Occasional day retreats and gatherings for mums to rest, reflect, and be nurtured.

No mother should have to hold it all alone.
Courage isn’t about being strong all the time — it’s about letting others help carry the weight.
This is your space to breathe, feel supported, and find hope again.

Whether you’re ready to join a circle, ask a question, or just connect with someone who understands — we’re here.
