It’s estimated that one in seven women in the UK will develop breast cancer in their lifetime, making it the most common cancer in the UK. Plus, each year, around 2,300 women aged 39 and under are diagnosed, and there’s currently no routine screening programme for younger women who don’t have a family history of the disease. But while the number of diagnoses is rising, survival rates are also increasing as treatment improves. Today, we’re joined by two incredible breast cancer survivors – former breast cancer surgeon Dr Liz O’Riordan and journalist Rosamund Dean. Together, they talk about each of their unique experiences living with cancer and the incredible work they’re doing in the space to raise awareness.
