Stories of secondary

Film & Campaign Description

If secondary breast cancer affects you or the ones you love, our research could help buy more time.

There’s an estimated 61,000 people in the UK living with secondary breast cancer. That’s why we’re funding vital research to give those with this incurable type of the disease more time to live their lives to the fullest.

Our new film features 9 women sharing their experiences of secondary breast cancer, and what more time would mean to them.

What research are we doing into secondary breast cancer?

Secondary breast cancer occurs when breast cancer cells spread from the first (primary) cancer in the breast, through the lymphatic or blood system, to other parts of the body.

Our researchers are here working to buy more time for people with secondary breast cancer.
