NHS Lancashire and South Cumbria are delighted to announce that we are partnering with 8 local Football Club Community Organisations to deliver Cancer Prehab to all of our cancer patients (18+) preparing for or currently receiving treatment. This includes patients receiving palliative oncology. This service will be self-referral only and initially will be a 1-year pilot, with the clubs looking to sustain the activity after this period. THE GO-LIVE DATE IS WEEK COMMENCING 6TH JANUARY.
Each session will include an hour of personalised exercise, followed by an opportunity to sit down with a brew and a biscuit whilst chatting with other attendees. When possible, the local trusts Macmillan information centre will also be in attendance, to provide advice and support where required.
