Move4You: NCL Cancer Physical Activity Rehabilitation Service

NCL Wide

The NCL Move4You programme is a 12-session guided physical activity programme for adults who have had a cancer diagnosis in the last five years. Sessions can be one-to-one, or in small groups.

It provides ongoing support for 12 months and is led by specialist activity instructors. The programme is tailored to each individual, supporting people of all abilities to engage with a variety of activities to help them move more before, during and after treatment.

The programme is currently delivering face-to-face and virtual sessions in Enfield, Haringey, Barnet, Camden, and Islington.

Benefits

The programme helps optimise a patient's health outcomes before, during and after cancer treatment. Research shows that there are many benefits of physical activity at all stages of the cancer pathway, including:

  • reduced fatigue and pain
  • increased flexibility
  • improved mood
  • general fitness and bone health
  • a reduced risk of osteoporosis
  • maintenance of a healthy weight.

An EMIS search has been created to support you to identify patients who are eligible for this service in your GP practice.
