BreaCan in partnership with Western Health are offering women from diverse backgrounds, living in the Western suburbs and affected by breast or a gynaecological cancer an opportunity to be involved in a gentle exercise session. The session is one of the many identified activities to be piloted, that form part of the Cancer Australia funded project, which looks at increasing the access of CALD women to support and information services.
The introduction to gentle exercise is an opportunity for women to ‘taste’ what would be involved in a more detailed and ongoing program that is set to be offered later in the year. It is hoped that many of the women who attend one of the two introductory sessions will be motivated to become involved in the detailed – Steps for Fun and Fitness program.
