In this health hour talk we will discuss everything about preventing breast cancer!

We will give a brief overview of the charity and why we are so passionate about preventing breast cancer, and the ways we are doing so.

By attending this event delegates will identify:

  • Our latest research findings.

Prevent Breast Cancer is the only UK charity committed solely to predicting and preventing the disease. Breast cancer is the most common cancer for women in the UK, every year, over 55,900 individuals are diagnosed – that is 153 people a day.

At Prevent Breast Cancer, we believe we can stop the problem before it starts. Unlike many cancer charities, rather than finding a cure, we’re entirely dedicated to preventing future generations from ever being diagnosed. Prevent Breast Cancer funds ground-breaking research solely aimed at the prediction and prevention of breast cancer. We promote early diagnosis, healthier lifestyles, and work together with others to influence change in breast cancer services.
