You do not have to carry a cancer diagnosis on your own. It can help simply to sit with people who understand.

About this service

Breast-cancer support group offers a calm and understanding space at the Riverside Centre in Newport for people affected by breast cancer. The group meets on the first Thursday of each month from 10am to noon. It gives people the chance to talk with others who understand, share experiences at their own pace, and feel less alone while managing treatment, recovery, or life after diagnosis.

This group helps by offering peer support, regular connection, and a gentle place to talk openly with others who understand the impact of breast cancer.

What to expect

Expect an informal and supportive group setting with conversation, listening, and shared understanding. You can join in as much or as little as feels right for you.

Adults in Newport and the wider Isle of Wight who are affected by breast cancer.
