Eating Well

Knowing the right foods to eat after a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming. 

We provide group online information sessions with an Oncology Dietitian on the important role nutrition has for people with cancer. Using evidence-based specialist advice we can support you to eat well during cancer treatments and beyond.

Exercise

Exercise before, during and after treatment can improve quality of life. 

We provide information and support on how you can make exercise part of your everyday life. We also offer free exercise classes, through ExWell Medical, to help patients to improve fatigue, quality of life, reduce anxiety and build strength and fitness in a fun and supportive environment.
