Funded by the Cancer Alliance in partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support, we offer Cancer Prehabilitation (Prehab) and Rehab sessions in a supportive and community-focused environment designed to support individuals diagnosed with cancer. The programme helps participants prepare physically, mentally, and emotionally for treatment and recovery. Prehab is an evidence-based approach that builds resilience, enhances well-being, and improves treatment outcomes, all delivered in a supportive, community-focused environment.
Building on the success of our Cancer Prehab sessions, which have been delivered weekly over the past year, this project leverages the power of community football clubs and club charities to support individuals affected by cancer through exercise, social connection, and peer support. It is designed around both prehabilitation (support before and during treatment) and rehabilitation (ongoing support after treatment). At both stages, the project helps participants to build physical strength, psychological resilience, and social networks that guide them through one of life’s most challenging journeys.
Aside from the physical activities another focus is to ensure opportunities to socialise and access support from organisations such as Macmillan.
