NORWICH SUPPORT GROUP
We welcome anyone considering reconstruction and looking at options, those who are going through surgery, and those whose reconstruction is now complete and would like to help others. Partners, family members and friends are also welcome to come along with you if you would like some company. There is the chance to ask questions as well as the opportunity for those considering reconstruction to see real-life surgery results and talk about experiences on a one-to-one basis with others who have already been through the breast reconstruction process.

HEREDITARY BREAST CANCER
As well as supporting women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and looking to have an immediate or delayed reconstruction, Keeping Abreast also supports those women looking to have elective reconstruction surgery due to the discovery of a breast cancer gene.
This support is provided by our sister group ‘Nick of Time’.

WANT TO HELP?
We are always on the look-out for volunteers to join us to help run our Support Groups so that we can offer support to
more women considering, facing and undergoing breast reconstruction.
Ideally we are looking for some previous reconstruction patients who would be willing to talk to others about their
journeys, and also some individuals to help with the administrative side of things too!
If you are interested in finding out more, please contact us here.

About Us
Keeping Abreast was established in September 2007 by patients Anna Beckingham and Beverley Birritteri and Breast Reconstruction nurse specialist Ruth Harcourt. They recognised a great need for women, both newly diagnosed with breast cancer and facing the possibility of mastectomy, and also women further down the line who are also considering reconstructive surgery, to be able to meet and talk to other women who have been through similar experiences. This allows women make an informed choice about whether or not to proceed with breast reconstruction.
