Pool of Life

Looking for a breast cancer support group with a difference?

Want to change those ‘I can't' thoughts to "YES I CAN " actions ?

Pool of Life is the first dragon boat team for breast cancer survivors in the UK. The team was set up to help raise breast cancer awareness and demonstrates that women and men living with breast cancer can lead full and active lives.

We support, we train, we race, we keep strong and we share happy experiences. We have raced at UK venues and also abroad. If you have had breast cancer and would like a new challenge we would love to hear from you and welcome you into the team (family and friends also welcome).

Dragon boat racing is a colourful, energetic sport, and a wonderful way to say ‘yes I can' after breast cancer. All over the world people who are survivors in every sense of the word are demonstrating their ‘can do' attitude as they take part in Dragon Boat Racing.

There are more than 140 breast cancer survivor dragon boat teams worldwide. Teams gather at festivals to race each other, raising awareness of the disease and raising money for breast cancer support.

While participating in the sport of dragon boat racing we endeavor to:
Encourage those who have been diagnosed with and treated for breast cancer to lead full and active lives.
Demonstrate the benefits of an active lifestyle through the sport of dragon boating.
Raise awareness about breast cancer and encourage ongoing research.
Provide support and fellowship to team members
Offer support to the family and friends of our members
Have fun.
