Haveneers

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak we have temporarily closed our centres and are not currently taking any applications for new volunteers. 


Become a Haveneer

Welcome to our amazing team of volunteers – or ‘Haveneers’ as we like to call them - who work together to increase awareness and raise funds for Breast Cancer Haven.

We want it to be as easy as possible for you to volunteer for us. Whether you have an hour a month, or a day a week to donate, we really appreciate you wanting to support women with breast cancer.

We have many volunteer opportunities available, including:
