The Power of Prevent is Prevent Breast Cancer's new health, wellbeing and lifestyle campaign. It is designed to encourage us to maintain our physical and mental health and reduce our breast cancer risk, whilst raising vital funds for research.

Story

I was diagnosed with primary breast cancer in 2015 & after nine months of treatment I was able to get on with enjoying life again. 

Then in December 2020 I was unfortunate to be diagnosed with primary breast cancer for a second time. After a lumpectomy & 9 months of chemotherapy & radiotherapy, my last radiotherapy session was September 2021.

After experiencing breast cancer twice I want to attempt to raise some money for Prevent Breast Cancer by walking 90km in the month of October which is breast cancer awareness month.

I'm joining the Power of Prevent (POP) to raise vital funds for Prevent Breast Cancer's vital research.Prevent Breast Cancer is the only charity in the UK dedicated to the prediction and prevention of breast cancer. Unlike many cancer charities, they focus on preventing, rather than curing. Promoting early diagnosis, screening and lifestyle changes, they believe in stopping the problem before it starts.
