There are severe workforce shortages within breast imaging in the UK. On top of this, an estimated 12,000 people could be living with undiagnosed breast cancer due to 1.5 million fewer breast screening appointments being carried out during the pandemic.

Our appeal for a new National Breast Imaging Academy would enable up to 13,000 extra patients to be seen at The Nightingale Centre each year, as well as further dedicated space for research into breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. This would greatly enhance the breast service and save a great many lives.

Get behind Prevent Breast Cancer and staff at The Nightingale Centre and help us build the National Breast Imagine Academy, using science to save lives.
