We the undersigned find the current FREE Exercise classes provided by General Wellness Centre and generously funded by GCCC are fantastic, however for those of us living between Reedy Creek and Helensvale, the current venues of Palm Beach, Upper Coomera and Southport are not manageable due to the distance, cost of fuel and traffic on the M1, and therefore we do not attend.
We would LOVE to have exercise classes and a water therapy class offered each once a week in the Nerang, Mudgeeraba or Robina area PLEASE.

We have 610 members in our Cancer Support Group between Coolangatta, Mt Tamborine and Beenleigh with at least 160 women living in the area between Helensvale and Reedy Creek, who would really appreciate the opportunity to attend these exercise classes.

Please check our the public Facebook page of our Support Group (Our GROUP is PRIVATE with the 610 members). https://www.facebook.com/Womens-Cancer-Support-GC-438332736899429/

Our founder, SANDRA JOHNSTON would gladly work with GCCC & General Wellness Centre to get a venue suitable for this. We have access to Bert Swift Centre at Nerang at a very cheap prices being a local support group and think the new Mudgeeraba Community centre, Nerang Bicentennial Hall, Carrara or Robina Community Centre would be viable venues for this community project.

We are really hoping you will look favourable on this request please.

Womens Cancer Support - GC.

My phone has been buzzing nonstop with notifications and I honestly still cannot wrap my head around how many people relate to the nightmare of sitting in M1 traffic while trying to prioritize their health. Someone sent me a message about how great the Bert Swift Centre would be for our group and it just clicked that we actually have a real shot at making these classes accessible for everyone who has been left out.

Would appreciate any health services that can be provided for free as undergoing intensive treatment and have limited funds but wish to try and regain some mobility and strength and not be so isolated with my diagnosis and get out in the community more in healthy environment

Desperately need another location. That transit sucks when you're feeling like crap.

I have attended the Upper Coomera Class since it first started, and I can vouch for how much it has benefited my progress as I recovered from my cancer diagnosis. It plays a part in my everyday life and I would like this to be accessible to as many women as possible.

I live at Burleigh Heads and have been fortunate to attend the exercise classes at Palm Beach and Water Therapy at Miami and Tallebudgera Rec Centre. I have found the classes excellent and it would be wonderful if other venues were considered, so that more people could benefit by attending classes that are more convenient to them.

Would really appreciate a venue in Robina or Mudgeeraba . As a cancer patient and pensioner I need to expertise regularly but petrol is now way to expensive to travel distances
