Hi Andromeda, My name is Emma I work in the Services Team at Breast Cancer Care. I wanted to let you know that we run Moving Forward Courses in Southampton. Moving Forward courses are run in partnership with NHS hospitals. Looking at the issues you may face after treatment, they provide information, support and professional guidance on how to cope with and adjust to life after your breast cancer diagnosis. The courses are for clients who have completed or will shortly complete their hospital based treatment, i.e. chemotherapy/radiotherapy and are run nationally. Courses take place weekly for 4 weeks and the next one is coming up in February. If you would like more information about this call please call my team on 0345 077 1893 and we will be happy to talk this through with you. We also have another Service called Someone Like Me which will put you in contact with a trained volunteer who has faced similar issues to those you are facing and understands what it’s like. They will be able to listen, share their experiences and support you to make the decisions that are right for you. Support is available over the phone and by email, and it is open to anyone who has or has had primary breast cancer and people undergoing genetic testing or who have received a genetic diagnosis. It is also open to partners, family and friends of those affected. To arrange to speak to a volunteer please contact the Someone Like Me team by calling 0345 077 1893 or emailing someonelikeme@breastcancercare.org.uk or check our website to see the volunteers who offer support by email. If you would like to know more about these or any of our other services please do give us a call on the number above Kind Regards Emma
