'When everyone thinks you're better ...'

... but you're not. In reality, we may be floundering in a wash of emotional anxiety that is frightening and new to us, high intensity with ebbs and flows that take us up and down, still needing that support we received in the early days of our diagnosis because we are often stuck in that wash cycle, unable to move forward or back, only round and round.

Having breast cancer is a transformative experience

It’s the reason Breast Cancer Support Aotearoa exists: to provide the support and reassurance you need to make sense of what’s going on.

​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.
