Do you eat tofu, edamame beans or soy milk? 🫛
There have long remained questions, and indeed misconceptions, around the relationship between soy foods and cancer.
Recent research funded by WCRF suggests that exposure to soy foods during early-life may influence adult breast tissue composition.

We`ve created these goodies to help us raise funds for breast cancer research. There’s no single cause of breast cancer, but there are many things that can increase your risk. Risk factors include behaviour choices like drinking alcohol, as well as your genes, hormones, and certain environmental factors. Some risks you can`t change, but our research informs the ones that can.
Do you think you could raise £10 or more for us? You`ll be making a change no matter what you do. Take the jump and click our link in bio. 🩷

It`s #NationalFitnessDay 🏃♂️
Did you know that around 40% of cancer cases are preventable?
While not every cancer can be prevented, being physically active is one of the best ways to reduce your risk.
In this clip, our supporter James shares why cancer prevention is just as important as finding new ways to treat and cure cancer.

New shoes. Photos on the doorstep. Another first day back at school 🎒
For many parents, September brings moments they`ll treasure. But for a parent who has faced breast cancer, it can be a milestone they once feared they would never see.
Sarah was diagnosed just one week after giving birth to her son, Ted. At one point, she wondered whether she would live long enough to see him grow up.
This October, we`re asking you to complete 112 Skips a Day for the 11,200 people who die from breast cancer each year in the UK.
Because behind that number are thousands of people – mothers, daughters, sisters, partners and friends – and thousands of moments their families want more of.
