A big hello to everyone. Welcome to the Friday Update on Thursday!
We are off to the Healesville Forum tomorrow and really looking forward to meeting the community out there.

Each week we have lots of different discussions take place in the online network. These can include questions, updates, celebrations and so much more. Here are some conversation you may have missed -

The holiday season is upon us.
We know this time of year can be challenging for our members. We also know
that, as a supporter, it’s hard to know what to say or what to do when we learn
that someone we love is diagnosed with breast cancer. So, let’s give them a
helping hand.
Think back to when you were
newly diagnosed or undergoing treatment. What are some of the special little
things that a family member, friend, or colleague did that helped make things a
little easier for you, that made you feel supported, and that brightened up
your day?
We’ll collect these and create a
little resource for supporters that they can use this holiday season.

I wanted to finish off this weeks update with a little inspiration from a young girl from Hobart. Her goal was to raise $400 doing something herself to support people in her community diagnosed with this breast cancer. Take a read of what she achieved.
