Online support group
Join us for a cuppa and a chat ...
We'd like to invite you to share an informal Zoom 'cuppa and chat' with us.
We're hosting more sessions on November 27 and December 22 where we'll share our experiences of breast cancer 'over a cuppa', and give and receive support within a confidential and peer-facilitated space.

It's OK to laugh and cry - that's normal!
We all need reassurance at some time or other, especially when we’re trekking down an unknown pathway into a serious headwind. Having someone walk with you – someone you can be sure of – who can give you a hug, a pat on the back, or take your hand, can be comforting and affirming when everything is uncertain.
How we can support you
We provide information, emotional support, and practical coping tips from our own experience to help you navigate yours.
Peer Support
From local community group meetings to individual support via phone or video calls, we want you to know you're not alone. We're here to support you when you need it.
Buddy Programme
Our Buddy Programme matches newly diagnosed women and men from any culture or ethnicity with a trained breast cancer Buddy who gives emotional and practical support for an extended period of time after diagnosis.

I spoke to a volunteer on the phone and it was the first time I really let myself go. I broke down in tears. It was good to talk to someone who had gone through the same trauma.Marilyn
