💗2025 Impact 💗
This year, we were able to support 77 patients with cold-capping therapy, helping reduce hair loss during chemotherapy 💫

Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia (CIA) is one of the most distressing side effects of treatment, a visible reminder of cancer that can affect self-image and wellbeing. Thanks to the generous donation of cold capping machines, our patients have access to scalp cooling, the only clinically proven method to help prevent CIA.

Scalp cooling works by lowering the temperature of the scalp before, during, and after chemotherapy, giving patients one less thing to worry about as they focus on their recovery. 💗

Every week, we meet mums, aunties, dads and grandparents navigating a new breast cancer diagnosis and one question often comes up: what does this mean for my family? 🔎

Family history can play a role in breast cancer risk, which is why understanding your genetics, knowing the signs, and having the right conversations early matters. Our latest pamphlet helps families understand risk, screening options and when to seek advice, empowering loved ones to take proactive steps for their health.

Because knowledge doesn’t just support one patient it protects whole families💗 Learn more

Breast cancer is common and affects 1 in every 8 women. Only 5% of breast cancers are thought to occur due to family history.
