Breast Cancer Awareness Month: ASM in Conversation With Prevent Breast Cancer

At ASM, we’re committed to fostering an environment that promotes our employees’ well-being in and outside the workplace. As a part of our Wellness Programme, this Breast Cancer Awareness Month we invited Vicky and Rachael from Prevent Breast Cancer to join us in a conversation about the importance of prevention, self care and early detection.

“Predict, Prevent, Protect”: a lifelong commitment

Prevent Breast Cancer is the only UK charity focusing solely on predicting and preventing breast cancer by identifying and assessing risk factors, offering preventative interventions, funding cutting-edge research and educating patients and clinicians.

Why does prevention matter?

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK, even if it’s a rare disease in men. Newer data show that 156 people a day receive a breast cancer diagnosis, and incidence rates are projected to rise within the next 10 years. During our session, we’ve learned more staggering statistics:

1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer
1 in 1,000 men will be diagnosed with the disease
1 in 10 breast cancers are diagnosed late

These staggering statistics highlight how widespread the disease is and remind us that breast cancer can impact anyone—ourselves, our family, friends, or colleagues. Advocating for prevention can save lives.

A story of strength and resilience: Rachael’s testimony

Rachael’s powerful story brought a deeply personal and moving perspective to our session, shedding light on the reality of living with breast cancer and the importance of a strong support system.

Her talk was crucial to help us understand the importance of adopting preventative measures for ourselves or for our loved ones.

An important lesson

Thanks to Vicky and Rachael’s expertise, our team had an overwhelmingly positive response to the session. Here are some key takeaways from our session:

“Today’s session was incredibly moving. Hearing Rachael’s story brought home the reality of breast cancer and its impact on families.”

“As a man, I knew breast cancer could affect me, but I hadn’t considered taking action. Today, I felt the push to self-check and sparked conversations with the women in my family too.”

Protect yourself and your loved ones

Breast cancer is a very common disease that can affect everyone regardless of their gender. Adopting some small but mindful lifestyle changes while assessing any pre-existing risk factors with your GP can make a difference.

Volunteering in May

Last month even more of our colleagues spent a day volunteering in the community.

Firstly, a team of colleagues supported Alder Hey Children’s Hospital during the Oli’s Safari Walk. The event was a 10k walk for all the family at Knowsley Safari Park and we supported by marshalling the event and handing out medals at the end of the walk. The event was the biggest yet and a great success, raising over £60,000.

On a beautiful day in May another team rolled up their sleeves to lend a helping hand at The Very Green Grocery. The grocery is a community project based in Northwich and promotes sustainability and reducing food waste. The team worked hard for the day tidying up their garden, weeding and planting.

We’re really proud of our colleagues who supported the charities, especially with such fantastic feedback from the charity organisers.

All of our colleagues are able to take a day volunteering to give back to our community, so keep an eye out to see what the teams get up to next.
