Friday Fundraisers 🎉

This week we're celebrating these brilliant fundraisers, the 'Bingo Bandits', who organised a bingo event at Launceston Town Hall, raising an amazing £1000 for the Primrose Unit here at Derriford Hospital. Over 120 people attended for the fun-filled evening and a raffle.

Thank you to Natasha, Caroline, Steve and Sandra for dedicating this wonderful event to the Primrose Unit, and to everyone who attended and helped raise these vital funds. We are so grateful for your support! 🩷 The Primrose Breast Care Centre

ANNOUNCEMENT!

We have an opportunity to run our first ever hospital fitting clinic session delivered by the Boost Team at Plymouth's Derriford Hospital, Devon, UK.

People who are interested in getting an NHS Boost in Plymouth you will need to call the Breast Care Team on 01752 431898 to let them know.

Let's show the NHS why offering more choice to women after breast cancer is so important!

If you are a member of any other online support groups and you can share this, please do. Helping us to spread the word would be wonderful - we need to reach as many women in Plymouth and the surrounding areas as we can.

Huge thanks as always for your support ❤️
