12 months ago today I lost my Mom, and I haven't been the same since, because Mom took a piece of my heart with her. 💔
Hence, I haven't been so active on here workwise, and I've been all over the place with my emotions, sorry.

I am now starting to feel a little stronger, but do bear with me.

Thank you

Happy 10th birthday Community Breast Care 🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂🍾🥂

A huge thank you to everyone for supporting us over the past 10 years and sharing this page.

A special thank you goes to Ladies Fighting Breast Cancer, Help Harry Help Others Cancer Charity, The Cancer Support Centre, BreastMates Central and Breast Friends - Sutton Coldfield and Tamworth.
Without their continued support and funding of my bra fitting clinics, and bras, Community Breast Care wouldn't have made it to here today. As you all know, this is my hobby and more importantly my passion ❤️

I would also like thank Sally Woodbridge, Lauren Bottley, and Joy Ashton who have also supported and raised funds for Community Breast Care from day one, and over the years, to help me help others.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you 🙏

Today is Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust Cancer Wellbeing Day.

This is a truly special event that I've had the honour of supporting with my specialist bra fitting service for the past 5 years.

I'm well stocked with 2 to 3 bras in each box within my size organised suitcases. I also have a selection of other bras including Marks and Spencer, none wired total support bra T33 8020, along with Trulife Uk Active Flow Swimming Prosthesis.

This year marks 10 years of Community Breast Care and my 21st year of .

Please, continue to support me and Community Breast Care by sharing my valuable service.. And maybe if ive helped you move forward after feel free to write a review, this will help others.

Lastly, do you know you can nominate Community Breast Care for awards, too.
I think after 10 years it would be AMAZING and well deserved to have a little recognition 🙏🥳

Thank you all for your continuous support ❤️

Good morning Ladies, can we talk bra's and Lymphedema, please.

As the seasons are changing lots of you will be bra shopping for the spring, and summer holidays.😎

✨️I have been a fully qualified and specialist bra fitter for 21 years. I only want the best for you unlike your retail store's.✨️

Therefore, I just want to give a little reminder, before you shop. 🛍👙

When you've been affected by breast cancer, im sorry to say, "wired bras are a definite No, No." Especially, for all day and everyday wear.
Which im now going to explain why.

By wearing a rigid wired bra this can cause a build of lymphatic fluid.

Think of your lymphatic system like a motorway, which pushes the fluid around our bodies.

If you have lost some of those Lymph glands this means there are not so many working. By wearing a wired bra this will slow and often block the lymphatic system completely.

If you had a full clearance of Lymph glands, remember your body is already having to work extra hard to keep that fluid moving around. If it can't flow, it will get stuck and build up. Which then becomes Lymphedema.

Im not saying, "you can't buy or wear a wired bra at all." But what I'm trying to explain is, a wired bra should only be worn for a special occasions, and for a couple of hours only."
Therefore, only buy one when you know your going to be wearing it, because otherwise its a waste of money.

I work very closely with Lymphedema nurses, and they only recommend none wired bra's.

Once you are diagnosed with Lymphedema, its only treatable and will never go away. So, please be mindful when shopping.

✨️ This really is important information, which you are more than welcome to please share with other groups and friends. ✨️

Thank you, for reading.

Best wishes
Alison 🎀
