Being diagnosed with secondary breast cancer and coping with treatment plans can put pressure on not only your physical health but also your mental health and wellbeing. Our Wellbeing Programme has been designed to help patients’ wellbeing – whether through nutrition, fitness, complementary treatments or mindfulness. 

 

 

We are delighted to launch a new Wellbeing programme for 2026. The concept is simple: weekly for movement, fortnightly for mind, monthly for wellness. 

 

OUR PROGRAMME IS OPEN TO ANYONE LIVING WITH SECONDARY BREAST CANCER IN THE UK AND REPUBLIC OF IRELAND ONLY

Weekly Movement & Mobility: Maintaining function and building strength through regular exercise

 

Yoga 

We are delighted to continue our partnership with Birdsong Yoga Physio to provide physio-led yoga sessions for the secondary breast cancer community, funded by the Karen Legacy Fund.

Yoga has been proven to help patients with breathing, flexibility and pain management. 

We have two online classes every week - Tuesday evenings at 8pm and Friday mornings at 10am.

To join any of the sessions, please email Yvonne on the button below.

To join our wait list, please complete Yvonne's questionnaire and one of our team will be in touch. 

If you have any queries, please email us.

Thank you for your patience while we work through our waiting list.
