Counterpart’s unique model connects, supports, and informs women living with breast or a gynaecological cancer to live well, whatever that means to them. Trained Peer Support Volunteers with a lived experience of cancer provide understanding and a listening ear, as well as emotional and practical support. Our peer support is supplemented by a range of information resources and well being sessions with qualified health professionals that complement the medical system and other cancer support services.

Our final What's On program for 2018 is out now.
As always, we have included a range of informative, creative and wellbeing-related sessions. If you have experienced breast or a gynaecological cancer, we hope you will find something of interest.
This program includes three webinars so you can participate online, even if you can't travel into the city.

It's time to share your art and craft talents
Counterpart (previously BreaCan) has always provided opportunities for women with breast or a gynaecological cancer to take part in creative activities to respond to their diagnosis or assist in their wellbeing. We are planning to bring together a range of artworks, crafts and creative projects by many different women to display at our end of year morning tea and on our website.
For information on how you can take part and attend our event see: https://counterpart.org.au/counterpart-makes-it/ Posted: 1 day, 1 hour ago
