I am thrilled to be attending the upcoming training. My name is Mandy Forteath and I live in Launceston in Tassie. I will be a 10 year survivor on May 28 and had a mastectomy and chemotherapy and have lymphodema.

I co-facilitate the Launceston Support Group and was trained as a Community Liaison 4 years ago. I was the  Chair of the Tasmanian Breast Cancer Network's conference held last year and facilitated the establishment of a Breast Cancer Rose Garden in our beautiful city park.

I am looking forward to meeting you all- I hope we have name tags though!
