Get active with We Are Undefeatable
Every move enables more. Find out how the We are Undefeatable campaign can support you to get active whilst living with breast cancer.
Living with a long-term condition as a result of your breast cancer diagnosis is difficult. We know that the way your condition affects you is unpredictable, where from one day to the next you don’t know how you will feel or what you can and can’t do.
Our information and support can help you get back into exercise after breast cancer and manage your long-term conditions.
Because it doesn’t matter whether it’s something small and new, or just that little bit more of something you already do. It all makes a difference.
We Are Undefeatable
Developed by 15 leading health and social care charities, including Breast Cancer Now, the We Are Undefeatable campaign aims to support and encourage you to find ways to be active that work for you.
