About Victoria
Cancer should not stop you living your best life.
Our Vision
An empowering community of young women discovering peace, joy, connection and understanding. As they are held together along their path of cancer.
“This awesome charity have made the most difference to me since my diagnosis in the process of recovery. I’ve had access to a cleaner when I couldn’t do it myself, I’ve had access to counselling which has made a massive difference in moving on and dealing with the emotional journey, coaching to help me find a way through hell and out the other side, massages, beauty treatments, a makeover and the amazing women’s support VP affinity which has led me to make friends with the loveliest group of fellow women on this journey too. Victoria’s Promise are always at the end of the phone or an email and the advice has made THE biggest difference. I honestly don’t think I could have got through it all without them.”
