Helping women smile again
Our story
Born from lived experience.
Built around kindness.
Fuchsia Faces began more than ten years ago with a simple purpose: to support women affected by breast cancer.
Founder Trustee Sue Hollyman has experienced breast cancer and treatment herself. Together with trustees Lucy Walduck and Emma Johnson, she is developing a friendly local charity where women can connect, rebuild confidence and enjoy positive experiences.
The charity has previously supported the Boudicca Breast Cancer Appeal at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, Little Lifts, and individual women facing the financial strain that illness can bring.

Our charitable objects
Relief, health and wellbeing
For the public benefit, Fuchsia Faces works for the relief of sickness and the preservation of health among women diagnosed with breast cancer, particularly those living in Norfolk and surrounding areas, through emotional, practical and wellbeing support.
How we support women
More than a diagnosis
Gentle, positive support centred on the person — not the illness.
Uplifting experiences
Creative and social activities designed to offer a positive break from appointments, treatment and everyday worries.
Time to be yourself
Relaxed spaces where there is no pressure to discuss illness — just warmth, company and something enjoyable to look forward to.
