Breast Cancer Care
“Breast Cancer Care is the only UK-wide charity providing specialist support and tailored information for anyone affected by breast cancer. Our clinical expertise and emotional support network help thousands of people find a way to live with, through and beyond breast cancer. We have more than two million contacts with people every year via our patient information, website and forum; and support more than 60,000 people directly through our face to face, phone, email and online services. We also campaign for better support and care, involving people with breast cancer in all that we do.
We are delighted to be involved with Quality in Care and the Oncology Awards programme and applaud their commitment to identifying, rewarding and disseminating best practice. We know how important it is to recognise and celebrate the work of healthcare professionals, especially during these times of ongoing change and increasing pressures. We look forward to continuing our support for this excellent initiative and welcome the very tangible improvements to patient care. “
