One of our GCs, Cassie - had a great time at the walk & talk this morning 🚶‍♀️Celebrating the first birthday of Inherited Cancers Australia On the beautiful beach in Kingscliff! 🌊

It is so important to talk about family history, knowing your risk and raising awareness can help save lives! 🗣️ Building community and coming together is so important - which is why we need organisations like Inherited Cancers Australia!

A lovely finish to two days of learning at the International Meeting of the Psychosocial Aspects of Hereditary Cancer (IMPAHC)! 🧬

It's your monthly reminder to feel it on the 1st!

Today, take a few minutes to check in with your body and look for any changes.

💜 Check for anything new or unusual
💜 Look for changes in shape, skin or texture
💜 Trust your instincts and speak to a doctor if anything feels different

Regular self-checks help with early detection and could make all the difference.

So exciting to see the published outcomes from the Mackenzies Mission study - just published last month! 🗞️ Over 10,000 couples enrolled and we thank all our clients who took part.

Congratulations to all those involved - this study highlights the need for carrier screening in reproductive healthcare 👏

A key outcome was that couple-based reproductive genetic carrier was largely acceptable to couples and the results were used to inform reproductive decision making.
