Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients scheduled for bowel resection for colorectal cancer will be recruited. They will be asked to complete questionnaires about their health conditions, fitness levels, psychological status,nutritional status and preferences for a proposed prehabilitation programme assisted by the cancer care co-ordinator. This would require approximately an hour of their time.
That would be the end of their participation in the research project. They will not be required to participate in any programme as a part of this project.
