Our Work Is Focused On One Belief
Every woman should have the opportunity to benefit from the advances in breast cancer care that make survival possible.
Rose Breast Health creates pathways to care that connect vulnerable and at-risk women to the screening, diagnosis, treatment and support they need.
By identifying and removing barriers to access, we help ensure more women can benefit from the breast cancer care that already exists.
Because women cannot benefit from care they cannot access.
Despite advances in breast cancer care, many vulnerable women still cannot access the services and support they need.
As a result, delays, treatment interruptions and preventable deaths continue to occur.
oo often, women die not because care does not exist, but because the system failed to reach them in time.
We identify women at risk of being left behind, remove the barriers preventing access, and connect them to the care they need.
​
Identify. Connect. Remove Barriers. Access Care.
​
From screening and diagnosis to treatment, support, and survivorship, we help women access the services that make survival possible.
Because women cannot benefit from care they cannot access.

Our Founder
Our founder, Benita Omewu, grew up in Nigeria where access to breast health services was limited. Later, working as a radiographer and mammographer in Australia, she witnessed women from migrant and culturally diverse communities experience delayed diagnosis and fragmented care despite the availability of services.
Across both settings, the pattern was the same. When systems are not designed to meet women where they are, outcomes suffer.
Rose Breast Health was created to ensure early detection, timely care, and support are not a privilege, but a right.

"I have seen women left behind even when care exists. I founded Rose Breast Health to bridge that gap and give every woman a real chance to survive."

Our Impact
Our work focuses on expanding access to care, because when women can reach screening, diagnosis, treatment and support, better outcomes become possible.

Across Australia and Africa, we connect women at risk of being left behind to the care they need.
