To mark Secondary Breast Cancer Awareness Day on 13 October, we’re producing a collection of practical tips for people living with secondary breast cancer. Visit breastcancercare.org.uk/secondary to order your free copy of the new book, and add your own tips to the website.
We’re also holding three events to mark the day. These are for people with a personal or professional interest in secondary breast cancer. The events are free but places are limited so please contact us to register.
In advance of the day, on Monday 10 October at 11am , come to Waterstones Piccadilly in central London to launch The little things that make a big difference – a printed selection of the tips on this website, written by people with secondary breast cancer.
