Story
I was diagnosed with primary breast cancer in May 2019, then stage 4 secondary incurable breast cancer in November 2020.
CoppaFeel is my chosen charity as its aim is to educate people to know their own bodies and check regularly, which is information I wish was available to me before diagnosis.
CoppaFeel! are the first UK breast cancer charity to create awareness amongst young people, with the aim to instil a new healthy behaviour that could one day save a life. They are on a mission to ensure breast cancer is diagnosed early and correctly by getting the nation to check their boobs/chest regularly. They want to educate people on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, encourage them to get to know what is normal for them and empower young people to have the confidence to see a doctor if they notice anything that isn't right for them.
