Form of workPosted: 01/02/2024 Closing Date: 08/03/2024 Job Type: Casual Location: Camberwell Job Category: Other Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) is Australia’s leading breast cancer consumer organisation. We provide information and support to those diagnosed and their supporters, opportunities to connect with others going through a similar situation and work to influence a stronger healthcare system to ensure all Australians affected by breast cancer receive the very best care, treatment and support. BCNA was born out of a small group of determined women who wanted to make the breast cancer journey better.
In 1998, when Lyn Swinburne founded BCNA, her vision was for no one to feel alone through their experience of breast cancer. In 2023, that vision still remains our priority. This year over 20,000 Australians will be diagnosed with breast cancer, including 200 men.
Sadly, we will also lose about 3,000 people to the disease. Over the past 25 years, we have built a strong and resilient network that brings together over 175,000 individuals. We are led by the lived experience of those who have already been diagnosed and we are driven every day to make the experience better for those who will be diagnosed tomorrow.
