MOVE Mentors act as trusted peer champions, encouraging people affected by cancer to move safely, confidently and in a way that works for them. In their local communities they’re helping to make movement and cancer awareness more accessible to those living with and beyond cancer.

Minister Butler has announced that from November, the Bowel Cancer Screening Programme will begin extending invitations to people aged 59, with 58-year-olds joining the programme from April 2027.
The phased rollout will continue until everyone aged 50 to 74 is eligible by 2031.

"The ratings are just geared towards flat cricket, not result-driven cricket. My personal gripe is that there's no marking system based on the cricket that it produced."

With proper planning, walking & movement can benefit people living with #dementia. Safe #mobility may reduce agitation, improve sleep, & support emotional regulation. The question should not be “How do we stop wandering?” but “How do we support safe movement?”
