Testimonials

"This is a fantastic idea… time and knowledge to get a proper fitting bra. Thank you Monica and Future Dreams."

Julie

"After having a double mastectomy with reconstruction I was left with uneven breasts, with a much smaller right side. Monica helped me pick out the perfect selection of bras and bikinis alongside a partial insert to fill out my right side to match my left. Afterwards you couldn’t tell my breasts were uneven at all! Monica is a complete lifesaver and she has helped me get my body confidence back a really difficult time."

Sarah

"Monica put me at my ease and I became fascinated with the whole process. I tried on several makes of bras until she was satisfied that I had the best fitting one for my prosthetics. I came away wearing my new prosthetic and bra. Monica called me a week later to check that I was happy and confident wearing my prosthetics with the new bras. I have my life back and Monica made that possible with her skill, experience - and eye for detail."

Sylvie and Danielle began Future Dreams with just £100 in 2008. They believed nobody should face breast cancer alone.  Their legacy lives on in Future Dreams House.  We couldn’t continue to fund support services for those touched by breast cancer, raise awareness of breast cancer and promote early diagnosis and advance research into secondary breast cancer without your help.
