BreastScreen NSW Mobile Bus will be onsite at DOOLEYS Lidcombe from Monday, 27 October to Friday, 7 November, offering free, confidential breast screening services for women aged 40 and over.

Breast cancer touches so many lives, our friends, colleagues, mothers, sisters, and daughters. Early detection truly makes a difference, and regular breast screening remains one of the most effective ways to find breast cancer early, when treatment is most successful.

The visit from the BreastScreen NSW Mobile Bus makes it easier for women in our local area to access this important health service close to home. It’s a valuable reminder for all women to take time for their own health and wellbeing, to pause, put themselves first, and book a screening. And for the rest of us, it’s an opportunity to show care by encouraging the women in our lives to do the same.

Bookings are essential. Please call 13 20 50 or visit https://www.breastscreen.nsw.gov.au/screening-location/SW/mobile-vans/Lidcombe/ to make an appointment.

Call 13 20 50 or book online for a free breast screen at our Lidcombe location.
