Advice on how to manage the side effects of cancer treatment through activity.
Brighton and Hove Albion in the Community’s Brighter Outlook programme offers free physical activity support from Level 4 Cancer Rehabilitation Specialists to help patients to prepare for cancer treatments, help manage the side effects of treatment and support recovery.
Once they receive a referral, everyone receives a one-to-one initial assessment (either in person or online) with one of their Cancer Rehabilitation coaches, and then follow-up appointments at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
Their goal is to support everyone to get more active in a way that is right for them.
They offer:
- group sessions (currently in Brighton and Hove, Eastbourne, Bexhill, Haywards Heath, Lancing, Chichester, Crawley and Hastings)
- a range of group sessions via zoom (including strength and condition, seated class, yoga)
- one-to-one home programmes
- referrals to local gyms
- and signposting to appropriate support and services.

“You are made to feel welcome, anyone can take part no matter what your fitness levels are, exercises are adapted to suit you. It’s great and inspiring to be amongst people who know what you’ve been through and everyone supports each other. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the classes, they were fun and uplifting and made a huge difference to my physical and mental health.”
