SUPPORTING THE
HUNTER NURSE EDUCATION GROUP

In 2006, PKF started the annual Breast Care Breakfast to empower our local Breast Care Nurses and give them the opportunity to attend educational conferences and expand their knowledge. One of the PKF partners lost his wife to breast cancer, and we felt we needed to support him and mark her memory. 20 years later, the breakfast has grown to a 500-person event and has raised over $450,000, contributed to 15 conferences, and supported many Breast Care Nurses and patients in the Hunter Valley through the Hunter Nurse Education Group.

Each patient supported by a Breast Care Nurse feels empowered by them in one of the hardest times of their life, and having them by their side creates a freedom for them to truly be able to express their deepest thoughts and feelings whilst facing the battle of their lives.
