The Breast Cancer Support (BCS) 'Young Women's Focus Group'
Member group Breast Cancer Support recently held a discussion group to help provide targeted and appropriate support services for younger women experiencing breast cancer.
BCS Young Women's Support Group is growing ... The Breast Cancer Support Young Women's group has been officially established! Six young women along with BSC Chair Misha Crosbie attended the March meeting. Nicky Foreman and Rosemary Geard are the Group's Co-ordinators and for the time being, Misha will continue in a mentor role.
There was much fun, laughter and the open and honest sharing of experiences about what it's really like to be a young woman diagnosed with breast cancer. Future meetings will be held on the fourth Monday of the month until November.
Our thanks to The New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation for the refreshments and the use of their office space for our meetings. The next meeting will be on Monday 22nd April at the NZBCF office, 11-13 Falcon Street, Parnell.
