We hope you will join us this Friday 19th October from 1 – 2 pm using #morethanalump to talk about breast cancer with Breakthrough, the breast cancer charity. Their health expert will be on hand and Breakthrough are giving away a few lovely prizes as well!
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime in the UK, while 1,000 women die from the disease each month in the UK – so raising awareness is crucial to help us beat breast cancer for good. Participating in a Twitter party is a good place to start.
FREE TLC Guide – Touch, Look, Check
Shocking new research has revealed that only 2 percent of women can name the five warning signs of breast cancer. Breakthrough’s FREE credit card-sized TLC guide provides vital information about the key warning signs to be aware of, and means everybody can keep it wherever is most handy to them, be it in their handbag or by the shower. Get your free TLC guide.
Myth Busters
There are many different myths out there about breast cancer – can cancer risk increase if you have larger breasts? Can stress increase the risk of breast cancer? Can deodorants increase your risk of breast cancer? Breakthrough can help to deal with any questions or concerns you might have.
We hope to tweet with you between 1 -2 on Friday using the hashtag #morethanalump. Anyone tweeting #morethanalump will be entered in a prize draw to win:
- 1 x £5 Pink Ribbon Bingo voucher
- 1 x PNY Attache Breast Cancer Awareness USB Flash Drive
- 1 x Avon 2012 Magenta pin
- 1 x Marks & Spencer Limited Collection Lipstick in Petal Pink
