We are a UK-based, volunteer-led non-profit charity dedicated to raising awareness and deepening understanding of Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), an often misunderstood and underrepresented form of breast cancer.

Our mission is to inform, educate, and empower.

We’re working to ensure that accurate and accessible information about TNBC reaches everyone who needs it: patients, families, and healthcare professionals.

What we’re doing to make a difference

  • We are working to place TNBC information leaflets in every cancer hospital, breast clinic, and waiting room across the UK, so no one is left without clear and compassionate guidance following a diagnosis.

  • We know that change happens when professionals are informed and equipped. That’s why we host dedicated Study Days and webinars to train and support TNBC Breast Nurse CHAMPIONS - specialist nurses who carry knowledge and awareness of TNBC back into clinics and hospitals across the country, helping improve care from the inside out.

  • At the heart of our work is our Patient Advisory Panel - a dedicated group of individuals living with or affected by TNBC. Their lived experience guides everything we do, ensuring our work stays grounded in real needs and real voices. They also help shape the future of TNBC treatment by contributing to research, informing medical guidance.

  • Our voice is present on the international stage through attendance at key medical and research conferences, including ESMO, where we raise awareness, build partnerships, and advocate for better recognition and resources for TNBC within the global oncology community.

We are entirely volunteer-run and receive no government funding.

Every donation is vital - powering our educational materials, outreach campaigns, advocacy efforts, and nurse training programmes.

With your support, we are making TNBC visible, ensuring that everyone affected is seen, heard, and informed.

  • “I’m Katherine, a wife, mum of two, finance professional for 30 years, and now a passionate advocate raising awareness of TNBC.

    In June 2023, my world shifted after a routine breast screening revealed I had TNBC, a rare and challenging form of breast cancer that few seemed to know much about. The lack of information and support in those early days was as overwhelming as the diagnosis itself.

    Treatment was intense.. surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and came with long-lasting side effects. But it also brought clarity: TNBC patients need more. More research, more awareness, more tailored support.

    Today, I’m back to work full time and proudly part of the passionate and forward-thinking volunteer team at The UK Charity for TNBC, coordinating the Patient Advisory Panel (PAP), working to raise awareness, influence and advocate for real change in TNBC care.”

  • “I’m Payal, a 29 year old TNBC survivor who loves puzzles, running, reading, and coffee.

    I was diagnosed with TNBC when I was 26 and am grateful to have completed successful treatment that included chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation, and a lumpectomy.

    I’m now back at work and am so grateful to also have found a volunteer opportunity with The UK Charity for TNBC.

    Everything we do is to make sure the voice of those with TNBC is heard and I’m so grateful - as a TNBC patient myself - to be a part of this organisation.”
