HIVE Directory: Your Emotional Well-Being

Live at Home was established in 1989 by MHA, a charity providing care homes, housing and support services for older people throughout Britain.

Over 50 Live at Home Schemes now operate across the UK, enabling older people to maintain their independence and live more fulfilled lives.

These services aim to relieve social isolation and encourage older people to take an active part in the communities in which they live.

In 2001, the Breast Cancer medical team at the Queen Alexandra Hospital invited a group of women to form a support group. At the time this group of women were being treated for breast cancer and undergoing the regime of treatments required for beating the disease and Portsmouth Breast Cancer Friends support group was formed. We are a friendly group of people that have had Breast Cancer. We are there for each other.
