Newcastle RENEW EXERCISE PROGRAMME (YMCA)

In your 20s or 30s live in our around Newcastle?

Want to meet others whilst regaining confidence in your body, building strength, improving your physical and mental health, combating your fatigue and improving your sleep? RENEW Newcastle is exactly what you need.

We're passionate about getting as many young people as possible active during treatment and living with the after effects a cancer diagnosis inevitably brings. That's why we've partnered with YMCA in Newcastle to deliver this transformative programme. Join us at YMCA Tyneside to meet others and get active together. 

Who can join? 

The programme is open to EVERYONE. Whether you are currently going through treatment, living with a Stage 4 diagnosis, recently diagnosed, in remission or living with the late effects of treatment, you're welcome to take part. It doesn't matter if you are an avid gym bunny or have never exercised before, our trainers have got your back. Whether you want to get stronger, fitter or simply get to know some others living in the same cancer whirlwind, then RENEW is right for you

What to expect

You don't need us to tell you that being diagnosed with cancer impacts your mind and body in more ways than we can count. That's why we've specially designed a free 8-week course of small in-person group circuit classes run by experienced cancer exercise specialists who'll be on hand to support you and cheer you on every step of the way. These experts know that the struggle is real when you're exercising with or beyond cancer and they'll tailor everything to your needs. And we know exercising alone is no fun, so you'll also get to hang out with others and get a sweat on together. 

You'll also get a RENEW booklet packed with tips about keeping active and a space to track your progress and an area to set goals too. We'll also send you our nutrition booklet and you'll be sent a link to access to some great videos on sleep and other topics to help you reach your goals. You'll also get a chance to meet others going through the programme in our friendly online community Circle. 

Book on the programme today by booking a ticket today, and we'll help you keep moving from treatment and beyond. 

Sessions will be held at:

YMCA Gym, Church Way, North Shields, NE29 0AB
