Help us raise awareness!

Forward on our e-postcard

We’ll be sending out an e-postcard to everyone on our mailing list and asking them to forward it on to raise awareness and to help us reach women who are suffering with symtoms but haven't been diagnosed yet.

Get yourself in the paper

newspapers

If you’re willing to share your story, contact your local paper. They are keen to cover relevant topics, so Awareness Week is the perfect time. We have created a template press release - you just need to fill in your details then send it to your local paper.

For a story with added impact, you could organise a fundraiser too.
