The course, which helps tackle post-chemotherapy cognitive problems, was deemed effective by researchers at Glasgow Caledonian University.
A course to help people with “chemo brain” is being rolled out across the UK by a cancer support charity after its success in Scotland.
The course, Memory and Concentration Changes after Cancer Treatment , will be rolled out by cancer charity Maggie’s across England and Wales after being deemed successful at the charity’s eight Scottish centres. Maggie’s lead psychologist Lesley Howells said: “Chemo brain – which can impact people who have never had chemo but had other cancer treatments – can be really debilitating.“We have seen how powerful these courses can be in helping people overcome these issues and are delighted to be rolling this course out across the UK to help as many people as possible living with memory and brain function issues caused by cancer treatment.
Dellasie, 31, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019, said chemo brain still affects her years later and she often forgets things.
