Moke knows from personal experience how important it is to get an early breast cancer diagnosis – and now she wants to share her story to help other people in a similar situation.

It was 2018 when Moke felt a lump in her left breast while moisturising herself after a bath and suspected something was wrong, but because she was busy, she didn't go to the doctor for a month. She said: "When I felt the lump I immediately thought, 'Oh, what is this? This is not normal.' But I was busy and kept putting it off. It was a lesson learnt. I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer which had spread to my lymph nodes. I had a single mastectomy followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. I had my lymph nodes removed and ended up with a chronic condition called lymphoedema, a swelling in the arm. Triple negative is the most aggressive form of breast cancer. After the operation, because they took the specimen to the lab, they found another lump already growing in the one they removed. It's that aggressive."

Moke, who's from Dagenham, is sharing her experience as part of our Tickled Pink campaign, which supports Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel!, to inspire other people get into a regular habit of checking themselves.

A big well done to Cameron, Zoe and Seema from our Rushden store for stepping in to help five-year-old Micah when he had an epileptic seizure while out shopping with his dad Brian.

Micah was diagnosed with epilepsy in May and often has several seizures a day. They're normally short, but this one lasted for more than two minutes, so Seema cradled Micah while he was unconscious until first aiders Cameron and Zoe arrived and called 999. When Micah came round he was very upset and confused, so they took him by wheelchair to a quiet room and made him comfortable while they waited for paramedics to arrive.

Brian said: "After paramedics arrived they decided the best course of action was to take Micah to hospital to be fully checked. The staff allowed him to leave with a magazine and toy lorry we had been planning to buy which gave a sense of comfort to Micah at the hospital. We appreciate all the support offered by the staff present who all went above and beyond for Micah to ensure he was as safe as possible and taken care of. We are so thankful to them all and it is great to know such well trained and caring staff are operating at the Rushden store." Brian and his wife Jamie were so touched by the colleagues kindness that they called in later to say thank you and to let everyone know that Micah was OK. He's since moved to some new medication which has led to his seizures stopping.

Asda Rushden store manager David said: "I’m incredibly proud of these individuals and the wider store team in Rushden. They always go out of their way to do what’s right by the customer and on this occasion really went over and above."

There's no history of breast cancer in Robyn's family – so until she felt a lump by chance one day she hadn't seriously considered it as something that could happen to her. Now she and her husband Andy are sharing their experience as part of our Tickled Pink campaign, which supports Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel!, and want to encourage other people to know the signs and symptoms of breast cancer.

Robyn, who's a mum of three and from Gwynedd in Wales, said: "I was just 33, classed myself as healthy, and my diagnosis came totally out of the blue. I found the lump by accident. I was in bed and I pulled the duvet up and just felt something. I kept it to myself at first, but soon told Andy, went to the doctor and then everything happened really quickly."

Robyn had an appointment at a breast clinic within 10 days of seeing her GP and was diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. Within another 10 days she was in hospital having a lumpectomy, followed by six months of chemotherapy and 20 radiotherapy sessions. Robyn, who's now been cancer-free for five years, said: "When you're being treated you get exposed to this whole other world and see the best of humanity, both from the people having the treatment and people giving it."

Community champion Jackie from our Burton on Trent store has always thrown herself behind our Tickled Pink campaign raising money and awareness for Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel! – and after her own breast cancer diagnosis it's become a very personal cause for her.

Jackie was diagnosed with breast cancer two years ago after going for a routine mammogram. She had an operation to remove the lump and five rounds of radiotherapy and has made a good recovery. It's an experience she's using to help customers and colleagues. She said: "When I'm doing Tickled Pink tombolas and fundraisers customers are always talking to me, so I can say to them that I've had it as well and survived. I'm always happy to tell people about my story.

"Some women put their mammograms off, but it's only a ten-minute appointment and it can save your life. It's not embarrassing at all. If I hadn't have gone when I was called then it could have been a different story. Tickled Pink is a great cause as we need to raise awareness."

Asda customer Theresa has thanked 23-year-old optical colleague Zain from our Nuneaton store for potentially saving the sight in her right eye.

Theresa was getting flashing lights, 'cobwebs' and blurriness in the eye, so made an appointment at the Asda opticians. Zain spotted a retinal tear and immediately referred Theresa to Walsgrave Hospital in Coventry for treatment. She was seen very quickly and had laser treatment to rectify the problem. Theresa, who used to work in the store, said: "If I'd have left it the retina could have detached completely, so if Zain hadn't spotted it it could have been a lot worse. I went in to see Zain personally to thank him for what he'd done."

Zain is a pre-registration optometrist who graduated in optometry at the University of Plymouth. He carried out the examination under his supervisor Sammy. Zain said: "I'm just glad that I managed to spot it and she got it sorted. In this profession you have got to have great attention to detail and I'm proud of myself. I do like to help people." The store's optical manager Karen said: "Zain did a very good job. We are very proud of him. He followed the process and spotted the tear in the retina. He hasn't been with us long but he's made a big impression."

When 21-year-old service colleague Charlotte found Β£250 in ten pound notes on the floor of our Pershore supermarket she turned detective to track down the person who'd dropped it.

Charlotte stored the cash at the customer service desk and then scoured the store's CCTV camera recordings to identify the customer – someone who was a regular at the store. She said: β€œI was just at the back of the store near the yoghurts and I saw a ten pound note on the floor. I bent down and picked it up and then further along I saw a pile of notes all loose. It was all very strange. When we went back through the CCTV we could see the money on the floor and people were walking past it – they can’t have seen it. I then saw the lady it belonged to and recognised her as a regular. It looked like she’d had it loose in the bottom of a handbag and it had fallen through a hole.”

The customer later realised that the money was missing and returned to the store to see if it had been handed in. Store manager Nathan said: "Charlotte is a great colleague, very reliable and dependable. She's held in very high regard here. The lady was so, so grateful."

As part of our Tickled Pink breast cancer campaign 22-year-old Hope is sharing her personal experience to encourage more young people to build a regular self-checking routine – and to show that finding something unusual doesn't always result in a breast cancer diagnosis.

Hope has got into a regular routine of checking herself after receiving text reminder messages and getting shower stickers from CoppaFeel! which are funded through our Tickled Pink campaign, which also supports Breast Cancer Now. It meant that when Hope noticed a small lump and increased sensitivity in her chest she was prompted to visit her GP. She said: "If it wasn't for that routine and the resources from CoppaFeel! I probably wouldn't have found the lump. That's why it's so important that people are knowledgeable on what to be aware of and that they have the confidence to go to the GP if they do find anything."

Hope was referred to a breast clinic in her home city of Liverpool and found out that it was nothing too serious. She said: "I'm so glad I got it checked out because you just never know. I was worried about wasting the doctors' time, but they kept telling me that I'd done the right thing. My message to anyone in that situation is that if something doesn't feel right then you should get it checked out. You have to put yourself first. But also I want more people to know that finding a lump isn't necessarily bad news."

Kellie and Vanessa from our Hailsham supermarket are proud to be supporting our Tickled Pink breast cancer charity campaign – and are using their personal experience to support any colleagues or customers who need it.

They've both had breast cancer and say the message put out by Tickled Pink and our charity partners Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel! about the importance of checking yourself regularly is so important. Kellie was diagnosed with breast cancer and endometrial cancer in June 2023 after she noticed a lump on her left breast. She's had chemotherapy and a mastectomy and has made an excellent recovery. She said: "My message for both men and woman out there is 'don't be scared'. People are scared to check themselves and are scared to go for a mammogram. It doesn't hurt and people are so lovely as they know what you are going through. Check yourself in the shower, the bath or at bedtime. If you feel something that's not right then please go to your doctor straight away."

Vanessa was diagnosed with breast cancer last year after a routine mammogram. She said: "I know people are really busy and just think everything is okay if you can't feel anything, but you should really attend those mammogram appointments. Mine was caught early thankfully so I didn't need chemotherapy." Store manager Tracy, pictured here with Vanessa and Kellie, said: "I can't put into words the fight, courage and bravery that Kellie and Vanessa have shown. The word courage means the ability to do something that frightens oneself and Kellie and Vanessa have courage like nothing that I have ever seen. It is a pleasure to work with these strong ladies."

When an elderly customer couldn't remember the PIN number on her bank card and was getting upset because she couldn't pay for her shopping our checkouts colleague Kim immediately stepped in to help.

Kim tried to calm the lady down, told her to take a minute in case the code came back to her, but when she still couldn't remember it and was getting upset as she had no-one to call or help Kim paid for it herself. She said: "She was looking in her purse and counting out pennies, but didn't have enough so I just thought if this was my mum what would I want someone to do. I had my debit card on me so asked the manager if it was ok that I used it to pay for her, and that's what I did. It meant a lot to her. If it was my mum I'd like to think someone would do the same if the circumstances arose."

Kim was awarded star points in recognition of her kindness which covered the cost of the shopping as well as a reward for going above and beyond. Asda Boldon's community champion Tracey said: "Kim's really modest and didn't want to make a fuss, but the lady was really overwhelmed by Kim's actions and could not thank her enough. Kim is our hero."

Look out for the wonderful volunteers who'll be joining Asda community champions like Jo from Asda Pwllheli to raise money and awareness for Tickled Pink in our stores this weekend.

Jo is a passionate advocate of our Tickled Pink campaign, which is now in its 29th year and supports charity partners Breast Cancer Now and CoppaFeel!. She said: "I fundraise for Tickled Pink as I have lost so many of my loved ones to breast cancer. I know first hand the effects breast cancer has on families and that’s why I’m proud to support this very worthy cause – it's a charity close to my heart. We should all remember to look after ourselves and regular checks are essential for the early detection of cancer, so no matter your age please, please check your chests, b***s and pecs ... men too!"

More than 400 bucket collectors will be in stores this weekend to raise vital funds for world-class research and life-changing support services. One of the volunteers who will be helping Jo this weekend is Bethan-Mary. Jo said: "She is an amazing woman, an amazing breast cancer survivor who is a ray of sunshine. I'd like to thank each and every volunteer who help with our Tickled Pink collections and fundraising. It really does means so much as your support helps others to know the importance of early detection. Your experience and knowledge of what you have gone through inspires others to go and check themselves."
