For 25 years, Breast Cancer Care WA (BCCWA) has been providing specialist breast care nursing, counselling, and both practical and financial support to West Australians facing breast cancer and their families.
Our evidence-based, personalised support involves a multidisciplinary team of health professionals (including metastatic specialists) who play a vital role in providing emotional assistance and information at various phases across the continuum of care, including diagnosis, treatment, survivorship and end-of-life care.
BCCWA’s services and programs are tailored to meet the diverse needs of individuals throughout metro and regional WA, offering both in-person care and virtual assistance. Currently, BCCWA is entirely funded by the generous support of the WA community, and has raised over $40 million to assist thousands of West Australians facing breast cancer. Without government funding, we rely on the generosity of West Australians through donations and appeals such as our annual Purple Bra Day.
How BCCWA helps the WA Community:
- We provide free specialist breast care nursing, counselling, financial and practical assistance.
- Our support is available to anyone living in WA who is facing breast cancer, as well as their families.
- We assist more than 1,700 families each year.
