October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Posted on: October 6, 2025

Every year, around 55,000 women and 400 men in the UK are diagnosed with breast cancer. Early detection, support, and access to the right services make a life-changing difference.

📍 If you or someone you know in Essex needs support — from local support groups to wellbeing services — visit Essex Map to find help near you.

Are you a charity, group, or organisation supporting people affected by breast cancer?
✨ Make sure your service is visible to those who need it most.

Together, we can raise awareness, provide support, and help communities across Essex stay connected.
