Macmillan Next Steps’ podcast number two now live!

Gloucestershire | Health | News

Our team at Macmillan Next Steps has recorded the second in its new series of podcasts.

In episode two, ‘Recipe for Health’, Therapies Assistant Practitioner Katie Clive and Community Specialist Dietitian Jo Sansom speak with Karen, Nicky and Claire, who recently attended the Recipe for Health course.

Recipe for Health is a six-week programme for people who have received a cancer diagnosis, which provides information and support to help them adopt a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise, during and post cancer treatment.

In this episode Karen, Nicky and Claire talk about their experience of attending the Recipe for Health course, and how it has helped give them confidence, strength and control, during and following their cancer journeys.

You can listen to the podcast at Podbean or via our YouTube channel:
