Hi there, I just joined the group (although I've been diagnosed with advanced breast cancer back in 2021 - no surgery could be done). I started to read comments from members - many interested in support groups. I am familiar/member with most of the ones referenced: the phone support group run by the Csncer Council every 2nd and 4th Tuesday and one of my friends is running the café at the Cancer Wellness Centre in Leura. You could try the LifeForce Foundation groups one face to face in Edgecliff (suburb in Sydney), and one online if you can't travel. They run once a week in 8 weeks terms.1
