UK’s only metastatic breast cancer patient advocacy charity. Led by patients, for patients. Focused on the unmet needs of people living with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).
Today we remember Tass. November 4th would have been her 34th birthday. This year her birthday was closely connected to the day our founder Jo died, falling the day after. As we pick ourselves up and move forward, we wanted to reflect on Tass’ legacy. #MetastaticBreastCancer #MBC

NICE will raise its cost-effectiveness threshold in 2026, potentially allowing more life-extending metastatic breast cancer treatments - like Enhertu for HER2-low - to qualify for NHS approval. METUPUK welcomes the move and will keep pushing for faster, fairer access. #MBC #METUPUK #NICE

Metastatic Breast Cancer is living with constant fear - the next scan, symptom, or progression. It’s waking up knowing the disease is still there. Bravery isn’t the absence of fear - it’s moving forward anyway. No one should face this alone. #FabricOfOurLives #MBC #BCAM

Metastatic Breast Cancer shatters lives - plans, bodies, futures. We grieve while we live, hope while we hurt, and smile through the pain. Strength shouldn’t mean survival alone. We need better care, faster access, and real compassion. #FabricOfOurLives #MBC #BCAM25 #Stage4NeedsMore

Metastatic Breast Cancer is ignored in headlines, funding, and data. We speak up, but too often we’re unheard - ignored in policy, in pink, in “awareness.” We are not an afterthought. Don’t look away. Share this. Demand better.

MBC hides in plain sight. It’s the only breast cancer that kills. We live with endless treatment, silent side effects, and fading visibility. Awareness saves lives - bring the unseen into the spotlight. #FabricOfOurLives #BCAM25 #METUPUK #Stage4NeedsMore #DyingForACure
