Every year, 62,000 people in the UK are told they have breast cancer. The diagnosis not only changes their lives forever, but also the lives of their family and friends. It’s the non-stop hospital visits with their loved ones. It’s the helpless feeling of watching them struggle with confidence, chronic fatigue and all the other side effects of treatment. It’s the worry that you don’t truly understand what they’re going through. It’s the strain of being a shoulder to cry on when you don’t feel strong yourself.

 

It’s the very real fear that they might die.

 

Breast cancer changes everything. Breast Cancer Care understands the emotions, challenges and decisions people face every day. They know that everyone’s experience is different. That’s why they are there to offer support and information and campaign for better care.

 

They are the only specialist UK-wide charity providing support to people with breast cancer. Their free services include support over the phone with a nurse or someone who’s been there, welcoming online forums, reliable information and local group support. They’ll help people to live life with breast cancer and beyond. From the moment someone notices something isn’t right, through their treatment and beyond, Breast Cancer Care will be there.

​

Breast Cancer Care need to keep their essential services free for the many more families who will need them in the future, but they can’t do it without your help.
