INTRODUCING MYÂ BOOK
'THE BOWEL CANCER RECOVERY TOOLKIT'
A few years ago I tried to find a positive, evidence based book about exercise to recommend to a client going through bowel cancer treatment. But I couldn't find one. So I decided to write it. I was lucky enough to find an amazing publisher in Hammersmith Books and two years later, here we are.
​
The book has two goals:
1. To provide support, information and encouragement about exercise to anyone with a diagnosis of bowel cancer
2. To provide medical professionals with a trusted resource to recommend to their patients.
In the book, I set out a step-by-step recovery programme wherever you are on your treatment pathway, and share tips and advice for everyone. Whether you're a regular exerciser wanting to get back to the sports you love or you're just thinking about getting active for the first time.
​
Based on current guidelines and my extensive experience working with patients and clinicians, the book will help you rethink your approach to physical activity and learn to exercise in a way that's not only safe, but nourishing and appropriate. I hope you find it useful and supportive.
