Happy 4th birthday to us! 🎈 🎉 Read all about what we have done over the last 12 months, thanks to the support of our fundraisers, volunteers and supporters: lobularbreastcancer.org.uk/lobular-brea...

Yesterday we were proud to join 60 cancer charities to speak as #OneCancerVoice. Together, we are calling on the government to deliver a fully-funded National Cancer Plan for England. In order to make real change happen for people living with cancer, the Plan must meet six essential tests.

This month, our CEO, Claire Turner, was in San Diego attending the @nbccstopbc.bsky.social's Project Lead - the world leading 6-day patient advocacy science training programme.

Due to its unique growth pattern, Lobular Breast Cancer rarely forms a lump, making it hard to detect on scans. Remember - you know your body best, so always be aware of any changes or differences that you see and feel. The signs & symptoms of Lobular: lobularbreastcancer.org.uk/signs-and-sy...

Just a reminder that the deadline to apply to become a LBCUK Trustee is Wednesday 11 June.

Are you a woman with Lobular Breast Cancer? Got 15 -20 mins to spare? In partnership with University of Aberdeen, we're conducting research to understand the emotional & informational needs of women with Lobular & how these needs can be supported through online resources.

This #VolunteersWeek we’d like to say a huge ‘Thank You’ to all our amazing Trustees. We couldn’t do what we do without you 🧡 And we’re recruiting for new Trustees to join our small but mighty charity! Could this be you? ⬇️

Thank you Ellie for a great article and for featuring us!

We're recruiting for Trustees who can help us to continue improving our work, challenging how we do things, and who want to make positive change in the lives of everyone affected by Lobular. Read more & download our Trustee Recruitment pack: lobularbreastcancer.org.uk/could-you-be...

Due to the growth of LBCUK’s activities and our expanding role in advocacy and research across the UK and internationally, we’re delighted to announce that Claire Turner has been appointed as Interim part time Chief Executive for the charity.

The Government is writing a new national cancer plan. Share your opinions & help inform them of the wider needs of Lobular patients – how it’s a distinct disease that needs better understanding, more research and more effective treatment guidelines. consultations.dhsc.gov.uk/shaping-the-...

Have you had a Metastatic Lobular diagnosis? Could you help Lobular Breast Cancer researchers at the Lee-Oesterreich Lab at UPMC Hillman Cancer Center and the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine in the US with their research?

This time last week we were with the clinicians at St Bartholemew’s Hospital to participate in their annual Barts Health NHS Trust Breast Cancer meeting. Our Chair, Claire Turner, and Trustee, Emma Amos, did a presentation about the impact of a Lobular diagnosis on patients.

Do you know what one of the simplest things you can do to raise awareness of Lobular Breast Cancer is? Call it by its name. Most people have never heard of Lobular Breast Cancer so the more we name it and talk about it, the more awareness we will raise.

We have overhauled www.elbcc.org and ask all existing and future participants to register and indicate their preferred working groups. Check the site, current members, and spread the word! @christinedesmedt.bsky.social @pwbderksen.bsky.social @lobularbcuk.bsky.social @lobularbca.bsky.social
