Our ethos is based on supporting cancer patients through focus and positivity and all of our services are designed with that in mind. Physical activity is the constant at the heart of our service provision and whilst our services are designed and shaped by the needs of our beneficiaries, everything we do involves some kind of activity and social interaction. At the core of our service is our specialised cancer exercise facility the CUFITTER gym. Built in 2015 it is the first of its kind in the UK providing a safe, dedicated space specifically for cancer patients to have access to cancer specific exercise classes from diagnosis onwards.
