iCan is a free cancer rehabilitation programme (supported by Lingen Davies) www.lingendavies.co.uk designed to support people in their journey to regain and maintain living well with and beyond cancer.
The ‘iCan Core’ programme is structured as a 5-week course (10 x 1 hour) sessions, with a focus on helping participants to regain their strength, confidence, and overall wellbeing.
The ‘iCan Core’ programme is tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual, taking into account their specific cancer diagnosis, treatment plan and physical abilities.
Participants in the ‘iCan Core’ programme are supported by a team of friendly cancer rehabilitation and mindfulness specialists. The programmes provide a safe and supportive environment where participants can share their experiences and connect with others who are going through a similar journey.
iCan can be attended by any cancer patient at any stage of their journey including pre-treatment, post-treatment, recovery or during the diagnosis phase.
Face-to-face sessions are available at different community settings throughout Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and Powys.
Online programs are also available for people who prefer this option and for those with reduced mobility.
We understand that keeping active, socialising and maintaining wellbeing, either with or beyond cancer, can be a challenging. The experienced and compassionate iCan team provide a safe and supportive environment where participation in all aspects of the programme is at an appropriate level.
The iCan programme is an invaluable resource for anyone who is living with cancer and looking to improve their quality of life, wellbeing and physical function. At the end of the 5-week iCan programme, participants will have gained a range of tools and strategies to help them continue on their path towards recovery and wellbeing.

iCan is different because we are an evidence-based programme which has published scientific evidence that proves that our 5-week programme significantly helps people live with and beyond cancer.
We are linked with several Universities and academic researchers to produce peer-reviewed and published evidence which clearly shows that our participants benefit greatly from participation e.g. increase strength/function, reduce inactivity, reduce fatigue, improve mood wellbeing and more.
