Hello everyone. For our next Information Forum, we will be heading up to Rockhampton! We'd love to see you there if you live within the region - https://www.bcna.org.au/news-events/events/information-forums/rockhampton-information-forum/

BCNA will be hosting an Information Forum in Rockhampton for people living with breast cancer and their supporters. 

The Information Forum will cover a range of topics including the latest in breast cancer treatment, managing your emotional wellbeing after a breast cancer diagnosis, and how you can live well during treatment and beyond. 

It will also be an opportunity to hear about what BCNA does and the services and resources we have available to support you, alongside discussing the unique rural challenges you may experience and the local services available in your community. 

Guest speakers will include Medical Oncologist Dr Rebecca Moor, Oncology Social Worker Dr Carrie Lethborg, Breast Care Nurses Donna Wellington, Sally Haley (McGrath) and Carolanne Boland, Exercise Physiologist and BCNA member Karen Seymour and BCNA member Michelle Peters. 

There will be two concurrent information sessions throughout the day – one for people with early breast cancer and one for people with metastatic breast cancer. Please register for the session you would like to attend.
