October is breast cancer awareness month, helping us all to be more knowledgeable about the signs and symptoms of breast cancer, and the treatments and support available.

Early detection is key, and our Breast Bud self-check hanger details how to do a breast self-check and what you need to look out for. The waterproof hanger can be easily displayed in the bathroom or the shower to remind you to complete a 5-minute self-check once a month. October is the perfect month to start checking!

You can get your own self-check hanger, free of charge, from our website: https://shorturl.at/ymq5g
