Why FACT was started.

In 2005, at the age of 34 years old, I was diagnosed with breast cancer - in fact on my daughters 2nd birthday, and my son was only 7 years old. I am only too aware of the impact that a diagnosis of cancer within a family has. No matter who the patient is, all family members are affected.

Mission Statement

The purpose of the organisation is to source, promote, and form relationships between, support services, groups, organisations and charities, available to Cancer patients.

By bringing together these services, a network of cross referral and recommended support can be formed between statutory, voluntary and commercial bodies, and the strength gained in numbers be drawn on.

By strengthening the network of support, FACT will give those suffering from Cancer, Cancer Survivors, and their friends and families opportunity to access these services more easily, and more quickly, often at a time when speed and ease is essential.

FACT will also provide social and support opportunities for all Cancer patients, survivors, their family and friends to meet, form friendships, and build communities with others in similar positions to themselves.

FACT will work to raise public awareness of Cancer related issues whenever possible.
