Some ladies also like to stay and share lunch at the RSL. We have a monthly newsletter if you would like to get the newsletter let me know and I can organise this as I do the newsletter. Our local McGrath Breast Care Nurse Marita Tipene is at the meetings. Our meetings are informative and fun, we mix them up by having guest speakers and also having outings. We enjoy having different people come and discuss various things not all cancer related, last year we learnt about scrap booking and how to do your family history. We organise speakers according to the needs of the group. Both those newly diagnosed and those who have had a diagnosis for longer are welcome to attend.

Whyalla Pink Spirits Breast Cancer Support Group
Our Group has been going strong since forming in early 2011. We are still meeting weekly, either for Afternoon Tea at the Sundowner Hotel/Motel or for a craft day at Spotlight. We alternate between the 2 venues. There is always a notice in the Community Diary section of the Whyalla News. (local paper) In April....weekend of 17th, 18th & 19th we are holding a very special Event......A "Health & Lymphoedema Awareness EXPO" which we are fortunate to have received a very generous grant from the Whyalla City Council to enable us to run this function. Professor Neil Piller, a Lymphologist, and a leader in his field, will be bringing a team of professionals to Whyalla, where they will conduct a presentation of the Friday evening, then workshops & screenings on Saturday and if necessary on the Sunday as well. This is a very exciting venture for us and we are thrilled to be hosting it for the benefit of people in Whyalla and surrounds. We thank BCNA for their support with this event also. Contact me (Rae) for more information.402Views1like23Comments
