'Prehabilitation' interventions aim to enhance individuals' physical fitness prior cancer treatment, typically involve exercise training as a key component, and may continue support activity, strength, during or after treatment. However, uptake of prehabilitation is variable. This study investigated how patients from diverse socio-economic status groups perceived an exemplar recovery programme, aiming understand factors impacting acceptability, engagement referral.

Background System mapping has mainly been used to develop theories and understanding of complex systems; hypothesise how an intervention might work in a system or inform development. There are few examples the use as part process evaluation. In this paper, we describe innovative approach using evaluation randomised controlled trial Active, Connected, Engaged (ACE) community-based active ageing programme. Method Ten participatory workshops were held across three ACE sites (Cardiff,...
The present study aimed to understand the experiences of older adult participants and service deliverers involved in a UK-based physical activity programme, developed using participatory approaches.
The Active Connected Engaged [ACE] study is a multi-centre, pragmatic, two-arm, parallel-group randomised controlled trial [RCT] with an internal pilot phase. ACE incorporates multi-level mixed methods process evaluation including systems mapping approach and economic evaluation. aims to test the effectiveness cost-effectiveness of peer-volunteer led active ageing intervention designed support older adults at risk mobility disability become more physically socially within their communities...
