“Breast cancer need not be a tragedy; early detection will almost certainly mean survival; information will empower and help you make the right choices; most importantly, there can be life after breast cancer.”
In all of this, Breast Cancer Support Gibraltar hopes to make a difference and make the experience of women more bearable.

October Awareness Month
October is Breast Cancer awareness Month, an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease. Most breast lumps are not cancerous, but it is always best to have them checked by a doctor.
GHA Breast Screening
The GHA team facilitates access to breast screenings, registering women who had not yet been invited and providing information to passers by.
Breast Cancer In Men
Although breast cancer is often thought of as something that only affects women, it can also affect men. In men, breast cancer grows in the small amount of breast tissue they have behind their nipples and men should be just as aware of breast changes as women.
OUR VOLUNTEERS activities
With the Internet spreading line wildfire and reaching every part of our daily life, more and more traffic is directed to websites in search for information.

About our charity
There are various things the charity fundraises for in order to offer services in Gibraltar. There are the obligatory running costs of the charity, printing and helpline; the continuous buying of publications and posters in order to raise awareness and the funds needed for advertising campaigns. We help women pay for professional counselling, prostheses, wigs, headscarves and support bras, and offer any other financial help if necessary and applicable.
Helping
We also buy specialist breast cancer care equipment for the hospital in order to enhance the Breast Screening Programme and One-Stop Breast Clinic and send health professionals on breast-related courses as part of their ongoing professional development.
