The organisations celebrates 50 years this year, explains Reach for Recovery's Michele Coe.
Reach for Recovery raises awareness by sharing stories, spreading knowledge and providing prosthesis to women in government hospitals.
They offer pre and postoperative support, visitation, meetings, prostheses and prosthesis fitting and distribute literature to raise awareness.
The aim is to provide prostheses for women in the state hospital system.
— Michele Coe, regional chairperson and volunteer at Reach for Recovery
We believe every woman should have a right to have prostheses after she's had a mastectomy.
