100,000 women supported by Berlei and BCNA!
Afternoon all,
As many of you know I went through my own breast cancer diagnosis and treatment in 2011. Following surgery, my breast care nurse gave me BCNA's My Care Kit which included the very welcome, well designed and extremely comfortable Berlei post-surgery bra. It was such a nice surprise and I know many of you will have also received this kit.
More than 100,000 Australian women have now received a My Care Kit after having surgery for breast cancer.
With Berlei’s generous support BCNA sends more than 13,000 My Care Kits out each year – around 250 per week. Our partnership with Berlei and the support of breast care nurses around Australia has allowed BCNA to provide very practical support when it's needed.
Each week in BCNA’s Melbourne office, hundreds of My Care Kits are packed by our wonderful volunteers who generously donate their time. The feedback we receive from women who have received this kit is incredible; it truly does make a difference to a woman’s confidence and recovery. I know my bra was also of great comfort during my radiotherapy treatment.
The delivery of the 100,000th My Care Kit is an incredible milestone for BCNA and Berlei's partnership. We are so grateful to Berlei for their contribution and commitment to helping the significant number of Australian women diagnosed with breast cancer every year in Australia.
To acknowledge this important milestone, Berlei are offering BCNA members a special 25% discount off all full-priced items purchased online before 31 October 2014, including the post-surgery bra. Enter the discount code BCNA25M at the checkout: www.berlei.com.au
A big thank you to Berlei for your generosity and continued support!
