Resources during the Online Network pause

Recently Diagnosed Breast Cancer Hands Web Banner

From Wednesday 19 March to Thursday 27 March 2025, the Online Network is 'Read only'.

This means:

  • you can search and browse to view public discussions and comments
  • you can't sign in, view private group discussions, add new posts, send messages or join private groups.

After Thursday 27 March, we look forward to welcoming you back to the refreshed My Journey, including the new-look Online Network.

Need information or support during this pause?

We have provided some helpful resources below, or you can browse this website. You can also reach out to BCNA's free and confidential Helpline on 1800 500 258. We're available Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm AEST.

If you are interested in registering as a new member during this period please contact us and we will contact you when the new platform is live.
