Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group Additional exercise options for patients living with and beyond cancer Patients living with and beyond cancer are eligible for the up and running ‘GO Active Get Healthy programme’ programme, available across Oxfordshire. A Cancer diagnosis has now been added to the eligibility criteria for GP Exercise on Referral programme and the forms, available on the intranet, have been changed accordingly. The programme is a free programme and runs until the end of September http://www.getoxfordshireactive.org/signup There are a wide range of local classes and activities available through the GO Active Get Healthy programme http://www.getoxfordshireactive.org/. n.b. The criteria for the GO Active Get Healthy programme is that you need to be 16 years+ and currently doing 30 minutes or less of moderate intensity exercise per week as opposed to the GP Exercise on Referral Programme where the qualifying criteria is less than 90 minutes per week. Consultants are being asked to advise eligible Cancer patients to increase their physical activity after treatment, so you may be asked about this at the 6 monthly cancer care review appointment. If you have any patients who are eligible please refer them to GO Active, Get Healthy programme so they can join up and start an activity of their choice.
