Hear the latest news and breast cancer research from Claire Rowney, CEO of Breast Cancer Now, and Dr Cliona Kirwan, a Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon and Professor of Surgical Trials.

Breast cancer remains the most common cancer in the UK, accounting for 15% of all new cancer cases. That’s more than 150 women diagnosed every day. The positive news is that survival rates have doubled in the last 50 years in the UK. Early detection and research are as vital as ever.

Helen Addis, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018, shares her experience and explains why she launched the Change and Check campaign.

Plus, actress Susan George, who starred alongside Dustin Hoffman in the 1971 movie Straw Dogs—a huge box office hit that led to many other roles in film and TV—talks about her career. She was married to actor Simon MacCorkindale, who died in 2010. Together, they managed an Arabian stud farm in Exmoor. In a wide-ranging conversation, we discuss her career, health, well-being, and love of horses.
