Physical activity classes for cancer patients in Belfast

"Physical activity classes for cancer patients in Belfast"

About: Oncology / Physical Activity Classes

(as the patient),

Hi, I took part in a twelve week online physical activity class run by Joe, Friends of the Cancer Centre’s Physical Activity Coach.  The course was recommended to help me recover from dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment last year.

 I found the level of exercise just right for my needs.  I looked forward to the online class once a week and Joe was a good motivator, but I also felt that he realised we were all on our own journey back to fitness and while we were exercising he had individual words of support for us.

The class encouraged me to get moving and I’ve enjoyed it very much.

Dear Rosy2

Thank you for taking the time to post about your physical activity sessions with Joe. I am delighted that you found them to be encouraging and enjoyable.

I will pass on your kind words to Joe and the rest of the physiotherapy team.

Best wishes,

Bernie
