Free or discounted Guum Membership

Hi Hilary.

I know Macmillans offer loads of complimentary treatments, acupuncture,  reiki  and things like that. I wonder if you could enquire of them whether they keep a record of companies that offer more.

Hope the spring weather puts a spring in your step soon.

Best wishes.

Many thanks.  
good idea 

Hi Hiliary

What Itisme said is spot on, i went to hospice for a long while, for reiki, i know they have hot tubs, and spa;s well my one did, Worth a  phone  call.  i got counselling from them as well, Worth a  phone call,

Hope they can advise you, xx

Thank you so much 

My local hospice has a tiny gym that I can use with physio guidance. She is also referring me to local leisure centre for an ‘active health’ membership. You qualify if affected by cancer or are getting benefits etc. Worth a try, phone your local hospice they support anyone living with a life limiting illness. 

Hi - a diagnosis of cancer which cannot be cured is normally included in a disability inclusion criteria.  Therefore a gym near you that offers discounts for people who can demonstrate some form of disability,  could be the answer.  Edinburgh Leisure do one (council run) for 50% discount.   Also better [dot] org [dot] uk offer free inclusive access to facilities.  They sound London based.   www.better.org.uk/.../better-hf-inclusive

Good to know.  Will make some enquiries.

Hi HAC,

I think, can get a referral from your doctor to your local gym. This will as i understand it,  give you discount as well.

Worth asking as a last resort.

Good luck

Thanks Cat 

Just had a gym session at my local hospice. Was great and once I’ve been fully assessed I can join their drop in session on once a week.
