New activity for January! Create Your Own Self-Soothe Box! We will support you in filling a box full of handy bits and pieces so you have something that can help when you're struggling. Bring your own box - it can be any kind of box! Whether you want to use a shoebox, a wooden chest, or a little Tupperware so it can be portable, bring it along!
Saturday mornings in January at 12pm

We are a non profit, budget of zero, network of young women with breast cancer providing peer support to each other. Totally volunteer established, totally run by members, facilitating and moderating our private chat groups to keep our groups as safe and relevant as we can. Helping younger women who are helping each other, who are talking, supporting, hand holding, laughing, diverting attention during tough times, celebrating good times and good stories, signposting other sources of help/support/services, sharing bad news as well as good as we know the reality of cancer, we know it has to be dealt with (although we wish it didn't), helping younger women in the UK/Ireland to find each other when facing a breast cancer diagnosis and all that that brings to our lives. Building a community, rebuilding lives.
