Want to support other women affected by cancer?

16 January 2019

Are you a good listener?

Volunteer with Counterpart

Counterpart has been providing peer support and information to Victorian women with breast or a gynaecological cancer for more than 15 years. We are looking for women who have been diagnosed with one of these cancers to join our Peer Support Volunteer team.

Working alongside Counterpart staff and other volunteers, you will provide a listening ear and emotional and practical support to other women with cancer.

We provide extensive training and support.

Hear from volunteers about their Counterpart volunteering experience, find out what is involved and have your questions answered.

Testimonial Image
  • Being able to discuss difficult issues openly and light-heartedly was a huge relief for me and helped me to feel 'normal' again.
    Fiona
  • After treatment the body and self are a bit battered and being in such a positive place (reflexology session) enhanced my feeling of self worth and esteem.
    Margaret
  • It is always so validating to hear other women with cancer talk about their experiences - they provide strength, insight and an opportunity to reflect.
