Lady McAdden Breast Cancer

Lady McAdden Breast Cancer We provide awareness, advice and education and are the only charity in the UK to offer Breast Awareness sessions on a one to one basis with a nurse.

We are a charity that offers services for the early detection of breast cancer via breast awareness, advice, support and education
The only charity in the UK to offer 1 to 1 sessions with a nurse - remotely or face to face. The Lady McAdden Breast Screening Trust was opened in 1976 and started offering services for the early detection of breast cancer prior to the NHS screening program which start

ed in 1988. With 55,000 women in UK being diagnosed annually with Breast Cancer each year (1 in 7 women will get Breast Cancer in their lifetime), our mission (as always) is to support the early diagnosis of Breast Cancer. Our principles are based on the NHS 5 point plan for being Breast Aware:
1 know what's normal for you
2 look at your breasts and feel them
3 know what changes to look for
4 report any changes to a GP without delay
5 attend routine screening if you are eligible to

Breast Awareness appointments are available to all aged 18+ either remotely (video/telephone) or face to face at our premises or in community venues - these can be booked via our website www.ladymcadden.org or by calling 01702 343288. We also provide support when you have a concern and for Breast Pain (where this is the only symptom) we run specialist clinics. Lady McAdden is not funded by the NHS and is totally reliant on public donations and fundraising. Our fundraising includes our shop at Tilbury - which has its own page - Lady McAdden Tilbury Shop.
