There's nothing quite like a nice cup of tea.

Warm and soothing, perhaps with milk and sugar and in your favourite cup? 

Biscuits go well with tea, and conversation does too. Some of the best chats I've had have been over the tea or coffee cups, catching up with friends, comparing notes, sharing a bit of gossip.

Breast Cancer Support's Cuppa and Chat support group may be an online one, but we can still get together, have a cup of tea, and a good chat.  

Talking things through can really help, especially if you're newly diagnosed, trying to sift through all of the information, emotion, and challenges that news like this can bring.

And if you were diagnosed some time ago, your presence at the group could give a newly diagnosed person some much-needed support.  

Our skilled Cuppa and Chat facilitators have had breast cancer too. You will be welcomed into a safe, confidential space, to connect with others, share experiences, and give, and receive, support. 

Please join us online for Cuppa and Chat. It's on Zoom, the last Monday of the month in May, and from June onwards, it'll be on the last Tuesday of the month. There are two sessions, one at 11am and the other at 7pm - and don't forget the tea.
