In the UK, over 150 people a day are diagnosed with breast cancer.
As a group of people that have been affected directly or indirectly by breast cancer, we wanted to take action and Challenge 150 was born. Our mission is to raise awareness about the importance of self-examination, to raise funds for cancer charities and to support them by volunteering our time. Visit this page for information about our activities and find out how you can get involved.
There's more to checking your boobs than a quick look in the mirror. Our friends at Coppafeel have some great advice on how to check and what to do if you find something that doesn't feel right.
We're raising money for Star Throwers, a cancer support charity based in Norfolk dedicated to supporting people affected by cancer, from diagnosis through to life after cancer. Around three quarters of the people supported by Star Throwers have a breast cancer diagnosis. Your donations will go towards providing nutritional support, cancer information, counselling, lymphoedema support and general running of this fantastic charity.
