Please can we ask if anyone is ordering through Amazon to go through Amazon Smile and nominate BOBC as your designated charity.

It doesn’t cost anything to the buyer but BOBC will receive a % of sales directly from Amazon!
This is so important to us at the moment. 💕.

Thank you for your support and please let others know.

It's the first of the month - time to check your breasts!

There's no right or wrong way to check your breasts. But it is important to know how your breasts usually look and feel. That way, you can spot any changes quickly and report them to your GP.

Every woman's breasts are different in terms of size, shape and consistency. It's also possible for one breast to be larger than the other.

Get used to how your breasts feel at different times of the month. This can change during your menstrual cycle. For example, some women have tender and lumpy breasts, especially near the armpit, around the time of their period.

After the menopause, normal breasts feel softer, less firm and not as lumpy.

The NHS Breast Screening Programme has produced a 5-point plan for being breast aware:

💜 know what's normal for you
❤️ look at your breasts and feel them
💜 know what changes to look for
❤️ report any changes without delay
💜 attend routine screening if you're 50 or over

At Boot Out Breast Cancer, the health, wellbeing and safety of our guests at our events is our first priority.

We have been monitoring the situation with regards to Covid-19 and due to concerns about the rapid spread of this virus and its severity, we have taken the decision to postpone the Ladies Lunch on the 19th March 2020.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and look forward to greeting you on the rescheduled date of the 1st October 2020. We understand that this new date may not be suitable for all attendees - if this is the case please contact us for further instructions.

Whilst we would like to keep things, ‘business as usual’ we must take into account that this event is non-essential and take what we feel, are the right steps to keep everyone safe.

We would also like to thank everyone for their donations to our Ladies Lunch and would like to advise that they will be stored and used at the rescheduled event on the 1st October 2020.
