There is a growing focus on stories that speak to the ‘lived experience’ of breast cancer, and Breast Cancer Support Aotearoa’s writing workshops provide an opportunity for women to write about, and share, their experiences under the careful guidance of professional writer and workshop facilitator Jane Bissell. There is no cost to attend the half-day workshop.

Within a safe, respectful, and confidential environment, a small group of writers can express thoughts and feelings that may be hard to talk about, especially with whānau and friends.  The 2026 Bay of Plenty workshop will be held in Tauranga mid-year (venue and date to be confirmed) and if you’d like to attend, please contact Breast Cancer Support Aotearoa on support@breastcancersupport.org.nz and they’ll keep in touch with you.
