You may be feeling alone right now, but through our network you can link with individuals or groups with shared interests, stay in touch at any time to support each other and share experiences.


If the online network is not for you, you can connect with BCNA by subscribing to our free quarterly magazine, The Beacon.

What's a blog?

 

As a member of our online network you can keep a blog or 'online diary' to share your thoughts and experiences. You can choose to make your blog public or only to share it with the people you are connected to in the network.

For some, a blog is an effective way to keep family and friends up to date with progress during treatment and can help with managing your time.

Groups can also use a blog to keep a dialogue going amongst their members.

The BCNA blog is a central information hub where we keep our members up-to-date with what's happening in BCNA

Online and other groups

 

Members of our online network can establish and participate in an online group to share experiences and views on a particular area of interest.

All of BCNA's Member Groups are online too. Member Groups provide peer-support to women in local communities.
