Coping with breast cancer can be difficult. If you are also living with a disability, you may face additional challenges. The needs of people with disabilities diagnosed with breast cancer may vary depending on individual circumstances, type of disability, financial situation, support networks, culture and many other factors.
Appropriate information and support can help you to feel more in control and able to participate in decisions about your treatment and care.
BCNA is currently redeveloping its breast cancer resources designed specifically for people with a disability. Apologies for any inconvenience while we update this collection of information.
In the meantime you can contact the Helpline to access any support you may need. Contact Us for further advice about using this service.
