Join us in celebrating The Diamond Centre’s afternoon tea, which raised £50 for Breast Cancer Now. Learn how you can help support research and care!
The Diamond Centre recently hosted a heart warming afternoon tea event led by Karen Hopkins, where the community came together to raise £50 for Breast Cancer Now, the UK’s leading breast cancer research and support charity. This event was not just about tea and conversation; it was about making a meaningful impact in the lives of those affected by breast cancer.
We want to extend a huge thank you to all staff and service users who participated, donated, and helped spread awareness. Your dedication exemplifies the power of community in supporting important causes.
The Work of Breast Cancer Now
Breast Cancer Now is at the forefront of breast cancer research and patient support. The charity’s mission is twofold:
- Research: Investing in ground breaking research to discover new treatments, improve early detection methods, and ultimately, find a cure for breast cancer.
- Support: Offering vital services such as a helpline staffed by expert nurses, an online community for emotional support, and practical advice for those undergoing treatment.
Every pound raised at events like our afternoon tea contributes to advancing this mission, ensuring that those affected by breast cancer receive the best possible care and support.
Why Your Contribution Matters
The £50 raised may seem modest, but its impact is profound:
- Supporting Research: It helps fund studies that seek innovative treatments to improve survival rates and quality of life.
Providing Care: It aids in maintaining support services like the Breast Cancer Now Helpline, which offers guidance to individuals and families facing a diagnosis. - Raising Awareness: Every donation helps spread the message of early detection and the importance of regular check-ups.

The afternoon tea was a wonderful example of community spirit and generosity. Highlights included:
- Delicious Treats & Tea: Everyone enjoyed a variety of homemade cakes, biscuits, and tea served in a cosy atmosphere.
- Inspiring Togetherness: Both staff and service users shared stories, laughter, and a shared commitment to the cause.
