About
Us
We are a pro-active
group whose main aim is to fundraise for causes connected with the
care, treatment and welfare of Breast Cancer Patients.
We are not a
support group in the conventional sense, but we do acknowledge that
support can be an important factor for some people.
That is why
we separate the two
Our meetings
provide a positive environment for encouragement and friendship,
and for organizing events that will raise money for our chosen causes.
We arrange social
activities for our members, and we occasionally invite Guest Speakers
to address us.
When it comes
to support, we cannot offer medical advice or information about
Breast Cancer or its treatments, but we know from experience the
people who can.

Breast Friends
actively promote
awareness of the available support and advice networks within our
area, and we will always help where and in ways that we are able.
As with everything
else in life there are always plenty of demands on our time and
HER Breast Friends are only too aware that your time, energy and
availability can go up and down as circumstances change.
The very nature
of the group means that members will drift in and out.
Everyone has
different skills and levels of commitment that they can offer, some
will be more active within the group than others, but be assured
that the only thing we ask of you is to help to maintain the positive
spirit of the group.
With over 40,000
newly diagnosed cases of Breast Cancer each year there are a lot
of people who are touched by the disease in one way or another.
People like
you can help us turn some of those effects
into the determination we share.
