Move More
Dumfries & Galloway
is a physical activity programme aimed at enabling people affected by cancer to stay active during or after treatment.

The importance of keeping active
We know that being active during and after cancer treatment improves both physical and emotional cancer outcomes and can reduce feelings of isolation.
However, we also know that many people affected by cancer feel nervous about building up activity levels.
Move More Dumfries and Galloway is a programme of activity specifically designed for people affected by cancer but is also suitable for those with a long term condition.
From gentle movement classes and low impact exercise to low impact gym instruction and walking there is something for everyone. Some charges apply for people with a long term condition.
All the activities are free of charge for 12 sessions for people affected by cancer. Normal charges will apply after this free programme is finished.
