>> the adoption and maintenance of physical activity.

>> to inactive cancer survivors and this would then be followed by 
>> delivering the program for 6 weeks. I have attached a 
>> recruitmentflyer to this email with more information on this study.

>> Please let me know if you need any more information from me to help
