The Inflammatory Breast Cancer Network UK

The Inflammatory Breast Cancer Network UK was founded by Caroline Ballinger whose daughter was diagnosed with IBC in 2011. At the time of her daughter’s diagnosis it quickly became clear that there was no IBC-specific support, information or research in the UK.

Our support service informs users about the International Standard of Care in inflammatory breast cancer treatment. We enable users to make informed choices about their care and we support them throughout their treatment and beyond.
There are support for Pateints, Medical and Family so please select the support most appropriate for you.

We are grateful for any fundraising you can do, no matter how big or small. Not only will you be raising money that we vitally need, but you’ll also be raising awareness of this little-known, aggressive form of breast cancer and of our charity.

We will keep this page up to date with all our charity news. If you have any news articles you’d like published, please contact us at info@ibcnetworkuk.org.

In these extraordinary times, our Charity’s priority for the health and welfare of those with Inflammatory Breast Cancer is more important that ever. Given the vulnerable nature of many of our supporters, we have produced some guidance for face-to-face support during 2022.

We are proud to be partners with EURORDIS – the voice of Rare Disease Patients in Europe. Every year we will be raising awareness of inflammatory breast cancer.
