Most participants were female (58.2%) and aged between 56 and 75 years (54%). Haematological cancers (25.6%) and breast cancers (22.9%) were the two largest cohorts, and most patients (57%) were currently on treatment. Prevalence of AHP cancer rehabilitation needs was considerable with an average of 71% of patients reporting at least one specialist need and 49% reporting at least two specialist needs across professions. On treatment status was consistently associated with greater odds of patients reporting specialised needs.
