Our Mission
At Breast of Friends, we are dedicated to fund raising money for individuals affected by breast cancer or receiving chemotherapy at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital, King's Lynn. Our mission is to provide resources, raise money for equipment, in addition to raising awareness for early detection of breast cancer. Breast of Friends was founded in 2019 by friends during their breast cancer journey. During their treatment programme they knew they wanted to give something back to the Queen Elizabeth hospital Breast and Chemotherapy units.
