Casting for Recovery (CfR) ACT aims to enhance the quality of life of women, who are recovering from breast cancer, through the therapeutic sport of fly fishing, within a supportive environment at weekend retreats. The CfR program is open to all women who have experienced breast cancer, of all ages and and stages of recovery, at no cost to them. This innovative program has attracted endorsements from medical and psychosocial experts.

Given that a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer each day of the year in the ACT, there is a large pool of women, who could benefit from this program.
