May is Mental Health Awareness Month — a reminder that caring for your wellbeing means looking after both your mental and physical health. 💚

Taking time for self-care includes:
✔ Checking in on your mental wellbeing
✔ Attending routine breast screening appointments
✔ Knowing what is normal for your body
✔ Practising regular self-examination

Early detection can make a significant difference, and screening appointments are an important part of staying well.

If you’ve received your breast screening invitation, don’t put it off — make time for yourself and attend your appointment.

🌸 Spring into Self-Care 🌸

April is the perfect time to check in with yourself.
Take a few minutes this month to get to know your body 💗

Early detection matters. If something doesn’t feel right, don’t wait—get it checked.

This Easter let’s remember that not everything is visible…

Just like Easter eggs 🐣 can be hidden, breast cancer can be too—sometimes with no obvious symptoms. 💗

Knowing what to look for can make all the difference:

🥚 Lumps or thickening in the breast or underarm
🥚 Changes in size, shape, or skin texture
🥚 Skin dimpling, redness, or swelling
🥚 Ni**le changes or unusual discharge
