Please.stop.taking away vital resources for the most on need in our country. So unfair and underhanded.

It's absolutely disgusting that anyone would even consider making these sort of cuts towards people who are obviously already going through devastating times...Shame on the culprit

It's wrong and people who have cancer and have to have a breast removed have enough to deal with. Please don't remove this as the person has probably been out sick from work and already finding it financially difficult.

Everybody with Breast cancer should be entitled to the same after care ... prosthesis and bras are essential to all

These cut backs have only been held back until August. They could still go ahead.

Hi Alison, we won't be able to stay in business, as mastectomy fitters, if this goes through. Who will then fit and supply the women that need this valuable service?. Valerie

its not just the well off who get breast cancer so we should not descriminate who gets the best aftercare!

This proposal is a disgrace. These cuts could hugely undermine a woman's journey back to feeling comfortable in her own skin again after surgery.
No woman should have to worry that she can't afford to look the way she did before her surgery when she's going about her daily life. We have survived enough!

Well said Eleanor. As you know the cuts have been put back until August. However, they could still go through. We have to keep fighting. Your comment says it all. Thank you.
