Breast cancer prevention talks

Bringing breast cancer prevention to your workplace or community 

Are you an organisation or group based in the London area? 

Can you host a talk with a minimum number of 25 attendees? 

Do you have audio visual equipment, such as, a projector and sound in order to maximise the delivery of our talk? 

If you can answer yes to each of the above questions, we would love to hear from you.  We have a select number of trained Ambassadors in and around London who can deliver a talk on breast cancer prevention.  Talks can be arranged at a mutual time to suit you throughout the day and are suitable for delivery during a lunch and learn session. These talks will provide a background to breast cancer and will give practical tips for reducing people’s risk. 

The Government’s Prevention is Better Than Cure paper  encourages employers to promote healthy lifestyles.  Many businesses are already taking action on the issue of health and wellbeing in the workplace and, as a result, are benefiting from higher staff morale and lower rates of sickness.  Ultimately, a healthy workforce can often mean a more productive one.  

What’s included in the Talks? 

• An hour long talk on breast cancer prevention, including time for questions and discussion 
• The latest statistics on breast cancer  
• What breast cancer is and what causes it  
• The link between oestrogen and breast cancer  
• The environmental and chemical causes of the disease, including the impact of everyday products and plastics  
• Information on lifestyle risk factors  
• How you can reduce your susceptibility  
• Tips on how making simple changes in your life can reduce your risk of breast cancer and those around you  
• How to reduce the chemical burden on your body  

The workplace is an important setting to encourage prevention as there are many lifestyle tips that can be incorporated into the working day, very often enhancing your organisation’s health and wellbeing message as a whole.
