CoppaFeel! x ABC Jersey
As part of our 25 year celebrations, ABC Jersey is super excited to be hosting the fabulous CoppaFeel! team and their iconic Boobette volunteers for a Secondary School Roadshow in March 2024! and Open Evening alongside our Jersey breast screening team.
Specifically focussing on raising awareness amongst young people, UK charity CoppaFeel! is on a mission to ensure that all breast cancers are diagnosed as early as possible.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK and yet a quarter of young people aren’t aware they could be affected!
The 2024 Roadshow has kindly been supported by Aztec Group.
Do YOU know yourself?
The Boobettes
Join the Boobettes!
The CoppaFeel! Boobettes are a team of volunteers who have all been affected by breast cancer in some way between the ages of 18 – 35. Using their stories, they inspire others to think differently about their bodies, educating them about the importance of getting to know their normal now, and making it a lifelong habit.
They have either had a breast cancer diagnosis, and may still be undergoing treatment, or have a personal experience – whether a breast cancer scare, preventative surgery, a genetic link, or a close connection to the disease through family or friends. All of our Boobettes share a positive outlook with a desire to make a real difference. Boobettes are the ultimate ambassadors of CoppaFeel! – the power rangers of the boob world!
Fancy joining the team of fabulous Boobettes and spreading the word around Jersey?
Meet The Boobettes
"If you share our passion for starting healthy conversations around chest checking and have been affected by breast cancer under the age of 35, they’d love to hear from you."
Applications are open annually!
Hurry up! Deadline for 2024 is Friday 8th March.
Or if you’d like to reach out to ABC Jersey for other ways you can volunteer your time to help support our local mission, please get in touch!
We are so grateful to Aztec Group for kindly supporting the School Roadshow
“We are delighted to support ABC Jersey bringing the CoppaFeel! Boobettes to our secondary schools and wider community. Breast cancer awareness for young people can be life saving and the alternative approach the Boobette team take to get this message across is fantastic.”
