Nordic Walking Tameside ABCD

Nordic Walking Tameside ABCD Free Nordic Walking sessions for people with or who have had cancer. Free Nordic Walking sessions for people with or recovering from breast cancer.

Set up with abcd - After Breast Cancer Diagnosis BUT any type of cancer experience is better shared so come and join us on a walk. A study, published in the European Journal of Cancer Care found that Nordic Walking is beneficial for improving common breast cancer symptoms including upper body and core strength, lymphedema, physical fitness, and the perception of swelling and pain. It also has positive effects on managing pain and depression associated with breast cancer. Come and see why Nordic is walking one of the fastest growing fitness activities in the world! Get a full body workout burning 46% more calories than normal walking but while being less tiring than normal walking. It can increase your heart rate by up to 13% meaning that you receive greater benefits through less effort. It exercises 90% of your muscles increasing strength in your legs, arms, shoulders, chest, and back. I walk in Tameside and Glossop area every week and will provide you with poles for the walk. This activity has been funded through After Breast Cancer Diagnosis and I am fully trained by British Nordic Walking. Please contact me to see what walks are available and I Look forward to meeting you 🙂

Hawthorn blossoms in Highfield country park are outstanding. Really added fragrance, beauty and an abundance of bird songs to our weekly walk. Wonderful little gem of an area you would never know you were on the age of a city.

For Day Two of our spotlight on MBC data, we are looking at some of the insights published by NAoME’s State of the Nation report in the autumn.

There is a patient version of the report https://buff.ly/4hYOTmn which is aimed to be used by patients. We are breaking down some of the content this week to help understand what data is and isn’t available so far into the audit.

The report produces a graphic to show what data was used in the report; 65% of the patient data population are de novo (straight to stage 4) and 35% of the patient data population recurrent MBC. NAoMe acknowledge that this is NOT correct. We know from other estimates and from the data matched to those who have died of MBC that this figure is not correct and there is a far greater proportion of recurrent MBC patients.

It also means that the diagnosis data/infographic is also INCORRECT. METUPUK have concerns about publishing charts/graphs that could be taken at face value without understanding how much data is missing. Should information that is not complete be published? Are the caveats clear enough to understand?

What we do know is that it feels lightyears away from being able to live well and long with the best outcomes when we don’t even know how many of us there are, let alone what type of MBC and interventions those who are longer term success stories have had.
