Exercise therapy, where the participant will receive a personalised 12 week exercise, nutrition and wellbeing programme Participants in both study arms will be asked to complete quality of life questionnaires and a basic fitness assessment at the start and end of the study follow-up period. Participants will be asked if they would be happy to conduct a short interview with a member of the research team, to assess their views on the study. This interview will be audio recorded and the audio recording will be transcribed anonymously to allow researchers to improve future study design.
