Breast Cancer Support Service

Our Breast Cancer Support Service is a free and confidential service where breast cancer survivors provide information and support to women with breast cancer.

The service is run by trained Breast Cancer Support Service volunteers, women who have had breast cancer. To to be matched with a Breast Cancer Support volunteer please contact the Cancer Council Helpline on 13 11 20.

The Breast Cancer Support Service is an opportunity for women with breast cancer to speak to someone who has had a similar experience. Where possible, women are matched with a volunteer according to age and type of treatment. The volunteers will call you at a time that is suitable to your needs.

Our volunteers do not give medical advice or provide professional counselling.
