Shape-Up following cancer treatment is an adaptation of the Shape-Up weight management program. This project involved qualitative work with bowel and endometrial cancer survivors to tailor the program to their needs and preferences. The work with endometrial cancer survivors was led by Dr Anne Lanceley (Principal Investigator, Institute for Women's Health) and carried out by Dr Dimitrios Koutoukidis, funded by UCL Grand Challenges.
