New support group in Isa

MOUNT Isa has a new edition.
The North West Breast Cancer Support Group.

It is so new – in fact – that it is not yet incorporated. But it will be.

President Kay Hardy said the group was started by breast cancer survivors to offer support to victims.

“We started it because there is nothing out there to help people who are diagnosed,” she said.

“It will be a really good thing for the community, not just Mount Isa, but also the North West.”

The group’s first meeting was a month ago, and this week they met for the second time.

The organisation hopes to increase the awareness of breast cancer in the Mount Isa and North West communities, and also provide support to victims.

Secretary Linda Tindale said they were already on track with their goals.

‘We already have a guest speaker for our next meeting and hope to expand beyond that in the future,” she said.

She said the organisation plans to regularly have guest and motivational speakers as well as training sessions on how to detect breast cancer.

The group will also fundraise for the cause to help provide accommodation and support.

The North West Breast Cancer Support Group meets on the third Tuesday of each month at 7.30 at the CWA Hall on Isa Street.
