Younger women's forums

Younger Women's forums

Services available in Glasgow.

Younger Women’s Forums are two–day residential weekends for women from across the UK to meet and share their experiences of breast cancer.

Breast Cancer Care knows that having breast cancer when you are young can be traumatic and isolating. Younger women with a diagnosis of breast cancer may not know anyone else whose lifestyle has changed as much as their own. Younger women with breast cancer often tell us that the information they receive is too general and doesn’t recognise issues particular to them. These are just some of the reasons why Breast Cancer Care has created these forums as welcoming spaces for younger women affected by breast cancer.
