We’re running a webchat on Friday (12 May) lunchtime (midday - 1pm) about breast cancer with two experts from Breast Cancer Care, who are one of our guest charities in May.
During the hour Rachel Rawson, Senior Clinical Nurse Specialist at Breast Cancer Care and Jane Murphy, Clinical Nurse Specialist at Breast Cancer Care will be on-hand to answer all your questions - from diagnosis, supporting someone who has breast cancer - to living with and beyond breast cancer.
Join us on Friday (12 May) at midday and if you’re unable to join at that time, do post your question in advance on this thread.
One person every 10 minutes is diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK. While survival has doubled in the last forty years the overwhelming effects of the disease can be long-lasting. More people are diagnosed and living longer with breast cancer than ever before and NHS resources are stretched.Breast Cancer Carehas information and support to help people move forward from breast cancer with confidence.
Rachel Rawson joined Breast Cancer Care in February 2007 after many years working in the NHS as a breast nurse specialist. She has a specialist interest in breast cancer and family history and writes widely on the issues that affect women and their families and friends after a diagnosis of breast cancer.
Jane Murphy is Breast Cancer Care’s lead on primary breast cancer. She directly supports the Helpline and Ask Our Nurses email services, calling on more than 10 years’ experience of providing information and support to people affected by cancer.
