Breast Cancer Care ... A Second Chance

 My Burden was shared - Thank you from the bottm of my heart ... AN Other!

 

The aim of the Reach for our Recovery programme is to supply practical and emotional support to breast cancer patients and their families.

We intend our support to enable you to make relevant personal decisions and to find the motivation for recovery from breast cancer with an optimal quality of life.
Our
programme, with its carefully chosen, well trained volunteers, is approved by the medical profession and promoted by cancer societies world wide.

SERVICES
Our volunteers will provide the following services:

Visitation
We will visit your in hospital or at home either before or after your operation or as often as is practical
Volunteers
Our volunteers are trained breast cancer survivors - we have been where you are now - we can help.
Emotional and practical support
This is provided at the time of diagnosis and, if necessary, at any later stage.

MEN CAN GET BREAST CANCER TOO!

Most of the information that men with breast cancer need is the same as for women.
