💕 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 💕
This month, the Badsey Belles marked the occasion with a really interesting and informative talk from one of our lovely members and her colleague, who are both Specialist Nurse Practitioners at a local breast clinic.
They shared some really valuable advice about the signs to look out for, reminded us how important it is to check ourselves regularly, and helped bust a few common breast cancer myths!
One particularly important reminder was that men can get breast cancer too, so please help us spread the word to the men in our lives.
We also embraced the pink theme with a special pink raffle, featuring three fabulous hampers and lots of other fantastic prizes! A huge thank you to everyone who donated prizes and bought tickets. All money raised will go to our chosen charity partner for this year, worcestershirebreastunit 🩷
Our next meeting is on 4 November, when we'll be learning about the valuable contribution women made to the war effort through the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS).
It was lovely to welcome some new ladies to our meeting last night! If you fancy coming along or would like to know more about Badsey Belles, just drop us a DM!
