Story

So I have decided to take on this challenge for a couple of reasons.

Breast cancer has affected many of my family and friends. I was also diagnosed with the BRCA 1 gene back in 2016. This means I have an 80% chance of getting breast cancer in the future and have regular scans. It's also means there is a 50% chance I have passed this on to my girls and I want to make sure there is information out there for them and that they check themselves regularly.

It really is important to check yourselves regularly as early diagnosis imakes so much difference.

I am also planning on having a double mastectomy in the next 12 months and want to get fit and health for this, both mentally and physically.

Thank you for your support!
