Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the UK and this month is dedicated to increasing awareness and understanding of the disease. At our firm, we are committed to fostering conversations about this vital topic. Earlier this month, we had the privilege of welcoming a CoppaFeel! volunteer who shared valuable insights on breast cancer awareness, including symptoms, risk factors, common myths, and the importance of self-checking. Today, we are wearing pink to show our support and are hosting an afternoon tea to encourage open discussions about breast cancer. Let’s continue to raise awareness, support one another, and empower those around us to take charge of their health. 🎀 #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth #WearItPink
