The Boobie Ladies - Supporting People with Breast Cancer

Helping Them Stay Cool, Supported, and Comfortable

Our Mission
We are a dedicated fundraising group committed to raising money for individuals going through their breast cancer journey who cannot afford to purchase essential items themselves. Our focus is on providing cooling pillows, fans, and bras to ensure comfort during this challenging time. We work closely with specialist nurses in Health and Social care Trusts across Northern Ireland to identify and assist those who are most in need. 
My Story
Hello my name is Michelle, the founder of Boobie Ladies. My journey began in December 2022 when I received a life-changing diagnosis of breast cancer after my very first mammogram. Despite no lumps, bumps, or symptoms, my world would never be the same again. But from that unexpected journey emerged a deep passion to give back and make a difference. Thus, Boobie Ladies was born.

Boobie Ladies is my way of turning adversity into opportunity, of spreading kindness and support to those who need it most. Here, we're not just about raising awareness; we're about making a tangible difference. Every donation, big or small, helps us provide vital support to women and men facing breast cancer.

So, thank you for stopping by, for considering a donation, and for being a part of our journey. Together, we're making strides towards a future where no one faces breast cancer alone. With love and gratitude, Michelle

Feedback

     

 I am so grateful for Michelle and The Boobie ladies for their support during my recovery from breast cancer surgery. Thanks to them I was able to get the best post-surgery bra’s to help aid my recovery in a nice and supportive environment without any cost to myself. I was getting continuous pressure and swelling and the recommended post-surgery bras can be really expensive and this great charity helped me get the best bras for my recovery and with a fitting service to ensure they fit perfectly and met me needs. With the help and support of The Boobie ladies I was able to access the best support bra for my recovery. This has really helped with my recovery and made me feel more comfortable. Cant thank them enough.

 I am extremely thankful to Michelle and The Boobie Ladies for the support i have received while i am going through my breast cancer journey. It's hard to describe the thoughts that went through my head when i heard those words 'it's breast cancer'. Knowing that Michelle has had the same journey, the same thoughts and feelings has been very reassuring. Michelle has been very supportive being in regular contact to ask how i am and allowing me to express my thoughts, feelings and worries. The hormone treatment had given me dreaded hot flushes. The Boobie Ladies provided me with a much needed hand held fan. a diagnosis of cancer is life changing and i cannot thank Michelle enough for her support and encouragement.
