Thursday Girls is a not-for-profit organisation, a mutual aid group established to facilitate support for women living and dying with metastatic breast cancer. Currently the group receives no government funding and is reliant on fundraising and donations to function. The money you donate assists Thursday Girls group to provide Facilitators, cover limited overheads and support members.

Suport is achieved by taking into account members physical, psycho social, emotional and relevant informational needs – primarily through a therapeutic group experience and through close supportive relationships and communication between the members. Support for their families is offered to supplement the help provided.

Thursday Girls comprises a warm, supportive and inclusive community of women who are living with advanced breast cancer, and their partners. This cancer is incurable, but due to ongoing improvement in treatment options, many women are able to live satisfying, productive lives for many years. The Thursday Girls program includes two weekly therapeutic support groups for women, and a similar monthly group for their partners. The groups have three main functions: to share information, create meaningful relationships with people in similar situations and get in touch with difficult feelings, dilemmas and challenges.
