We are a small regional charity, that relies entirely on donations, volunteers, and funding to deliver support and care to more than 500 women and men fighting and surviving breast cancer every year. Because of this support, we are able to invest 97% of the funds we raise in those who need it the most. We are here for those dealing with the life-changing breast cancer diagnosis; that includes supporters, family and friends, who may be struggling with the impacts, emotions and challenges that this diagnosis can create. We provide critical community support and care, through our BreastMates Central services and our Well Woman Choir; we also offer financial guidance and assistance, via our LFBC Bursary, which we created to ease hardship with micro-grants for essentials. Whether you’re a fighter, survivor or supporter, you’ll find your place within our warm, welcoming community. We rely entirely on funding, fundraising and our volunteers to carry out this important work. A £10 donation provides an hour of 1-2-1 counselling support for a breast cancer patient and £35 covers the costs for a Hug-In-A-Bag.
