Check your breasts. It could save your life.

Anyone can get breast cancer, and 1 in 7 women in the UK will develop it in their lifetime. But when it's found early, treatment is much more likely to be successful.

So get into the habit of checking yourself regularly. It's as simple as TLC.

Touch your breasts ✋

Look for changes 👁️

Check anything new or unusual with a GP ✅

Share this post with friends and family so everyone can spot the signs and symptoms of breast cancer.

When you come along for your mammogram

✅ please wear separates ( a top and skirt or trousers). This will mean it’s easier to undress for your mammograms!

❌ Avoid dresses 👗 as it’s easier to just remove a blouse or top.

Please do come along when invited, early detection can mean less treatment and could save your life !

📢 If you are travelling to St George's by car or bus for your mammogram or breast assessment please allow extra time for your journey from 11 May for three weeks.

🚗🚦This is because temporary lights will be at the Tooting Broadway junction with Garratt Lane and Mitcham Road as part of ongoing works along the A24.

⛔️Longmead Road will also be closed at its junction with Mitcham Road and access to and from Longmead Road will also be restricted for three weeks.

This may lead to delays, particularly at busy times so patients and visitors are advised to allow extra time for their journeys and consider alternative routes where possible.

💗Breast screening saves lives 💗

💕Data from NHS England (Apr 2024–Mar 2025) shows just how vital screening is in catching breast cancer early—when treatment is more effective and survival rates are highest.

💕If you’re eligible, don’t wait for symptoms. Attend your screening appointment when invited.

📍 In Southwest London, we’re encouraging all eligible women to take up their screening offer. It only takes a short time, but it could make a life-saving difference.
