Help us develop the services map on our website
Hello everyone,
Have you seen the interactive Map of Services on our website developed to help people affected by breast cancer find the services they need in their area?
If not, take a look at it on the website at http://maps.breastcancercare.org.uk/. Enter the postcode or place name of where you would like to find services, select a distance, select the type of service from the list and click ‘search’. The results of the services you have chosen in the area you have selected will be marked by flags on the Google map. Click on these to see contact details of the service selected. Or take a look at the useful results list below the map.
The map was launched on the website back in March and has been developing and growing since then. So far we list Breast Cancer Care services, NHS screening units, information and support centres (for example Macmillan centres) and local support groups (small informal self-help groups).
We need your help now to decide what the next category of services on the map should be. What would you find most useful?
• Hospices (these often run support groups for carers and people with
primary breast cancer amongst other activities)
• Specialist clinics (such as lymphoedema clinics, prostheses clinics
etc)
Please let us know what you think - email

Hadn't seen this. Think it's great idea!

Interesting. Makes you realise how much support some areas of the country get compared to others.
