How it works?
Presentations can take place virtually or in-person depending on your school or college’s preference.
The programme is all about starting a discussion about breast health and encouraging TUI members to self-check regularly to identify what is normal for them, so that if an abnormality occurs it will be detected early.
Using a medically induced mannequin the Breast Cancer Ireland team will show the 8 signs and symptoms of breast cancer as well as how to perform a self-check examination. Presentations take approximately 30 minutes and can be arranged during lunch time or after school / college hours.

- 30% of women diagnosed with Breast Cancer each year are between the ages of 20 and 50*
