Breast Friends

The Breast Friends fundraising campaign seeks to raise £30,000 a year towards our life-saving breast screening service.

It costs us £120 to deliver a free breast screening to a local woman either at Action Cancer House or on board the Big Bus. We screen approximately 7,500 women a year for breast cancer. As our breast screening service receives no government funding, we heavily rely on the generosity of local people to keep this service going.

Have you had a breast screening with us or know someone affected by breast cancer? Then it’s time to get the girls together for a Breast Friends fundraiser this October and make a real difference during Breast Cancer Awareness Month to local women in your community!

Organise a catch up with your Breast Friends this October and raise much needed funds and awareness at the same time. You could hold a coffee morning, paint and sip event, pamper day or ladies’ night at home, in your local salon, gym or anywhere of your choosing!

Jacqueline Rooney, a 47-year-old mum of two, Artist and Action Cancer Ambassador, added:

“I believe Action Cancer saved my life through early breast cancer detection. As the face of the Breast Friends campaign, I will be using my platform as an Artist and Content Creator on social media to encourage as many women as possible to get behind this wonderful charity and host a pink event this October. This could be a paint-and-sip event, coffee morning or Girls’ Night In. Take time out of your busy schedule and use this as a great excuse to get the girls together for an overdue catch-up. Through your Breast Friends event, funds raised could make all the difference in saving the life of a local woman in your community.”
