Only one week to go!

I am raising money for research in breast cancer surgery. My team will be cycling 260 miles from the breast unit at St George’s hospital in London to the ACC conference centre in Liverpool in order to attend this year’s Association of Breast Surgery annual conference.

I am very grateful to our sponsors Endomag, Q Medical and Raise Healthcare who work closely with the breast team at St George’s to provide medical devices for breast cancer surgery. Their sponsorship will help is over the cost of accommodation, food and a support vehicle for our team of cyclists.

Please support us and donate!

*Regularly drinking alcohol increases your risk of developing breast cancer.

*The more you drink, the greater your risk, although you can still develop breast cancer even if you do not drink

*To reduce your risk of breast cancer, limit the amount of alcohol you drink
The earlier in your life you start to reduce your drinking, the better.

*Reducing your drinking can also help improve your general health and wellbeing, as well as reducing your risk of other cancers and diseases.

*It’s not fully understood how alcohol increases the risk of breast cancer.

*It might change the levels of hormones in the body, including oestrogen. Oestrogen can help some breast cancers to grow.

*There may be other ways that alcohol increases the risk of breast cancer, but these are not yet clear.

*It remains important to come along to screening as early detection saves lives.
