Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Every October, we come together to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month - raising awareness, supporting those affected by breast cancer and funding vital cancer research in Wales.

Throughout the month, we’ll be encouraging supporters, schools, workplaces and community groups to get involved through fundraising events, awareness activities and personal challenges. Whether you organise something big or small, every effort helps make a difference.

Get involved this October

There are lots of ways to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month, including:

  • Hosting a coffee morning or bake sale
  • Holding a pink-themed fundraiser
  • Taking on a personal challenge
  • Organising a workplace or school fundraising day
  • Wearing pink to raise awareness
  • Making a donation in support of cancer research

However you choose to take part, your support will help fund life-changing research and raise awareness across Wales.

Our new pink pin badge

This year, we’ll also be launching a brand-new sparkly pink pin badge to help supporters show their support throughout October.

Perfect for wearing at fundraising events, in the workplace or day-to-day, the badge is a simple way to help raise awareness and start conversations while supporting Cancer Research Wales.

More information on how to get involved, fundraising ideas and campaign resources will be available soon.

Support cancer research in Wales

By taking part in Breast Cancer Awareness Month, you’ll be helping to support vital research, improve outcomes for patients and bring hope to families affected by cancer across Wales.

Together, we can make a difference this October.

We are the Welsh cancer research charity. Help us fund world class research in Wales.

Every week in Wales, 175 families lose a loved one to cancer. We are working to make sure that the people of Wales don't have to accept cancer as a life-threatening disease. But we need your support. Donate today and help bring better treatments closer to home for patients across Wales.
