Around 200,000 people in the UK each year are diagnosed with cancer and many will receive limited to no access to funded fitness classes. Those suffering chronic fatigue and physical impact would benefit hugely from fitness classes to recover. This would help to offer a meaningful pathway of structured and progressive exercise rehabilitation.
