We don’t think X is the best place for us to reach our audience anymore. We are still here to provide free support to anyone affected by cancer.

Attached is a new visual summary of the recent SIO-@ASCO guidelines on #depression during treatment and after treatment. Feel free to share and disseminate, particularly with someone you love or know going through cancer treatment. #mindfulness #yoga #music #relaxation
More evidence for the importance of high quality #HealthInformation, which is why we're delighted to be a #PIFTick certified provider! We're excited that our first accredited resources on eating well during cancer treatment will be published in the new year.
Some really interesting data on the importance of #HealthInformation and the current #HealthLiteracy landscape in this summary.
Also great to see such a strong endorsement for the #PIFTick 👇

So much mounting evidence for the positive effects of exercise before, during and after cancer treatment. @PennyBrohnUK have championed exercise alongside cancer treatment for many years. Read more about the evidence and our exercise services here: shorturl.at/KP2yL
EXERCISE IS MEDICINE! Enthralling to hear @ProfRobNewton @drmalcolmwest share the mounting evidence that exercise itself can prevent cancer, support treatment efficacy & ameliorate side effects #PREHABMEL2024 @GM_Cancer @MOVEcharity @LesleyLesleys @mysurgeryandme @MatthewEvison1

The paradigm that cancer care is only about diagnosis and treatment will never change unless these kinds of educational charts become patient centred.
What’s matters most to the person at the heart of all those boxes & lines? How will they be helped to live the life they want?
Not a single thing covering active management or prevention of psychological & physical impacts of treatment except for where side effects mean ineligibility for treatment or where you get ‘best supportive care’ = end of life.

NEW BLOG! Regular physical activity helps reduce cancer risk, even with minimal amounts like 11 minutes per day. The best exercise is one that gets your heart rate up, and is something you enjoy so you stick with it. Learn more here: bit.ly/3QPuYLq

If we don’t start thinking seriously now about how to provide supportive care for people living with cancer (and beyond), by 2040, 5.2m people in the UK will not get proper access to the care they need. #supponc @UKASCC @CancerCareMASCC #timetoact
