PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(2 July 2025)

To encourage movement, the National Health Service’s Better Health Campaign signposts people, including those living with long term conditions like cancer, to digital support like the NHS Active 10 walking app and Couch to 5K.

The NHS Cancer Programme, through local Cancer Alliances, is working to ensure physical activity is fully integrated across the whole cancer pathway, which includes opportunities within rehabilitation for people who have undergone treatment.

We know that more can be done to support people living with and beyond cancer. The National Cancer Plan, due to be published later this year, will set out how we will seek to improve the experiences and outcomes for people at every stage of the cancer pathway, including after treatment.
