Just heard of free course put on by YWCA called Encore. Is for breast cancer ladies but must be at least 8 weeks post op.One venue is FMC 20/10 - 8/12 4pm - 6pm and the other is Hampstead Rehab Centre 17/10 - 5/12 7-9 pm. It includes hydrotherapy, exercisestalks on nutrition, mindfulness , relaxation techniques , lymphodema awareness etc etc . As they receive no funding and it is free there is no marketing budget so I thought I's put it up here in case anyone was interested.

    This is the most amazing course to do.  Val Salter with the assistance of Judy Brewin runs the course at Hampstead and its is truly wonderful.  I've made quite a few friends from my involvement with Encore and twice a year they have an reunion dinner - next one is in late January 2018.  Encore receives little or no funding from anywhere so they are reliant on people assisting them with the Community Raffle and other fundraising ideas.  I can highly recommend any girls who are finished their treatment to make enquiries about when the next course will be run.
