Ovarian Support Group
The group meets on a monthly basis (on the second Monday of the month) and is an open group. “Open” means that there are a mix of new and regular group attendees each month and the number of women in this group can vary from month to month, we normally have 6- 10 people attend each month.
Please don’t hesitate to call the Ovarian Cancer Australia Helpline 1300 660 334 (during business hours) or email support@ovariancancer.net.au if you would like to discuss the details further.
