Breast Cancer Haven is a charity in the United Kingdom which rebranded in September 2010 and is now called The Haven.

The Haven runs centres in London, Hereford and Leeds, offering free support, information and complementary therapies to anyone affected emotionally or physically by breast cancer and its associated treatments. Specialist nurses and experts in nutrition, exercise and emotional support provide tailor-made programmes for every person who comes through the doors. The Haven's outreach programme has been specially developed for people who can't get to a Haven's so they can benefit from The Haven's unique care in the comfort of their own home.
