We CAN-move
We CAN-Move is a new exercise referral programme designed specifically for adults (16 years plus) who have been affected by cancer. The programme provides cancer patients with opportunities to be active including access to personalised exercise programmes delivered by experts in exercise and wellbeing.
Being physically active after a cancer diagnosis is linked to better cancer outcomes for several cancers, it can also help to improve post-operative outcomes and prevent cancer recurrence.
The programme is based on supporting individuals to become active in an activity that’s right for them. This means ensuring there is sufficient access to a range of trusted resources and activities locally and not just cancer-specific exercise sessions.
We CAN-Move has been developed by Northamptonshire Sport in collaboration with the Macmillan Cancer Recovery Package, Public Health Northamptonshire and local health and fitness providers.
