A significant proportion of ovarian cancer patients and their partners experience elevated levels of distress. Determining if particular services, diet or exercise are effective in alleviating this distress will help to inform service provision and clinical practice. This research approaches this issue by firstly evaluating use of psychosocial services, diet and exercise in relation to quality of life, and secondly by piloting a lifestyle intervention for patients and partners with distress.
