The Primrose Foundation would like to invite patients who have received breast cancer treatment at The Primrose Breast Care Centre, University Hospitals Plymouth to join our NEW patient forum, The Pink Primrose Panel.

Meetings will be held tri-monthly, and each session will be led by our charity manager and supported by patient volunteers. You will be invited to openly discuss how together we may be able to create positive changes to benefit local breast care services and families affected by breast cancer.

This will be a safe and friendly space to provide positive ideas and thoughts. Please note that we cannot discuss your treatment or provide any medical advice. The purpose of the group is to discuss constructive and optimistic ideas and thoughts ONLY regarding potential opportunities and projects that will allow us to support our local breast care services and those living locally affected by breast cancer.

If you have been a Primrose patient and would like to join our exciting NEW patient forum and help create positive changes, please contact us today.

Meetings will be held at Hearts Together Hospital Hotel, 7 Blunts Lane, Plymouth. Our first meeting will take place on Friday 25th October from 10-12pm and will continue to run on the last Friday of the month, tri-monthly.

FREE parking and light refreshments will be available to everyone.

If this sounds like something you would like to be part of and you wish to get involved, please contact us on info@primrosefoundation.org or call (01752) 975217.

Important forum information

Each session will have a maximum of 15 places therefore we ask that only those who have been affected by breast cancer within the last 5 years attend.

EVENT POSTPONED

Many of us purchase a special outfit, wear it once, possibly twice, never for it to be worn again, so why not bring new life to your wardrobe for a fraction of the price of buying pre-loved items instead?

Do you have a passion for fashion but not their price tags? Do you want to try a new style and pay a price to make you smile then why not come along for an afternoon of celebrating fashion and purchase some pre-loved items to.

Five great reasons to buy pre-loved.

• Saves you money.

• Reduces waste and helps to tackle landfill.

• Helps our environment & fair trade.

• Lengthens the life span of each garment.

• Supports good causes like us.

Should you require any more information about this event please contact us at info@primrosefoundation.org

We look forward to welcoming everyone to this truly unique event.

We’re asking for a small donation of just £2.50 from each person who wishes to celebrate with us – we hope that’s ok. Every penny raised will go towards supporting the Breast care services at University Hospitals Plymouth and with medicine advances and technology improving all the time, our wish list for these all-important serves is ever-evolving.

The Primrose Foundation is delighted to be able to bring you a unique opportunity to create a personal piece of art from a cast of your breasts.

You will be provided with an at-home kit that will have all the essentials required to cast your breasts plus easy-to-follow instructions on how to complete the first stages of your cast. 

Then, led by talented local artist Yvonne Rainer, we will gather as a group on Friday 18th February 2022 to turn your cast into a beautifully decorated piece of art.  This will be varnished for you and ready to take home at the end of the workshop.

 The cost of this workshop is £100, this includes:

• All materials required to make, create and decorate your cast.

• Buffet style lunch and refreshment at The Fresh Fox, Fore Street, Saltash

The workshop, based at The Fresh Fox, Fore Street, Saltash, will start at 10am and finish at approx. 4pm.
