Our next Womens Wellness Group will feature summer planting on Wednesday 24th June 2026 at 2.30pm.

All participants will receive seeds to start your planting, a pot for some herbs and some bedding plants to spruce your pot up. This is open to any woman living with and beyond their cancer diagnosis and we encourage registration to ensure we have enough items for all. Please call us on 0579328268 to register your interest.

A huge thank you to Theresa and everyone at Castle Barna Wellness Retreat for inviting the staff of Dóchas Offaly Cancer Support Group to a beautiful wellness morning as a gesture of appreciation for the work we do in our community.

It was such a thoughtful and generous experience, and so deeply appreciated by our team. The chance to switch off, recharge, and feel so warmly welcomed and cared for meant a great deal to all of us.

We are incredibly grateful for your kindness and support, and for recognising the importance of the work happening in cancer support services every day.

If you’re looking for a peaceful space to unwind, restore, and take time for yourself, we would strongly encourage you to check out Castle Barna Wellness Retreat. You can follow them on Instagram. A truly special place run by genuinely caring people.

Thank you again from all of us at Dóchas 💛

Please note our centre is closed on Tuesday 16th June 2026 to allow for staff training and development. We will reopen on Wednesday 17th June 2026 as normal.
