How well do you know your breasts?

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a helpful reminder to get to know how your breasts usually look and feel.

Changes to look out for include:
• A new lump or swelling in your breast, chest or armpit
• A change in breast size or shape
• Dimpling, redness or other skin changes
• A ni**le turning inwards or developing a rash
• Unexpected ni**le discharge
• Breast or armpit pain that doesn’t go away

Finding a change can be worrying. It doesn’t necessarily mean cancer, but it’s best to make an appointment with your GP to have it checked.

You don’t need to be an expert to check your breasts. Getting familiar with them can help you notice when something is different.

Thank you for choosing Check4Cancer.

To our patients, followers, healthcare partners and everyone who has trusted us to support them—thank you.

Our aim is to make cancer risk assessment and screening clear, clinically led and personal. That means providing:

* Guidance shaped around individual circumstances and risk
* Access to specialist screening and diagnostic pathways
* Clear explanations of results
* Support and guidance about appropriate next steps

For many cancers, earlier detection can improve treatment options and outcomes. But good screening begins with choosing the right test for the right person—and ensuring that appropriate support is available afterwards.

Thank you for continuing to be part of the Check4Cancer community and for helping us encourage better-informed conversations about cancer risk and early detection.

Cancer screening isn’t one-size-fits-all.
Age, personal and family history, lifestyle and other risk factors can all influence whether a particular screening test may be appropriate.

At Check4Cancer, we help people:

* understand their individual cancer risk
* explore screening options appropriate to their circumstances
* access clinically led screening and diagnostic pathways
* understand their results and what should happen next

Screening cannot provide complete certainty, and not every test is right for every person. That’s why informed choice, clinical oversight and clear follow-up are central to our approach.

If you have symptoms or notice a change that concerns you, speak to your GP or another qualified healthcare professional rather than relying on screening.

Thinking about having your skin checked, but unsure what the appointment involves?

A Check4Cancer Skin Cancer Screening and Mole Check is designed to make the process straightforward and supportive.

During your appointment, a specialist skin cancer nurse will examine your skin from head to toe. Moles or skin changes requiring closer attention can be examined using dermoscopy, with high-quality images taken where appropriate.

Your images and clinical notes are then reviewed by experienced skin cancer consultants. You’ll receive a secure report within five working days, clearly explaining the findings and any recommended next steps.

✓ Appointments usually last up to 25 minutes
✓ No GP referral needed
✓ Clinics across the UK
✓ Available to adults aged 18+
✓ Guidance provided if further assessment is recommended

If you’ve noticed a rapidly changing mole, a sore that isn’t healing or another potentially concerning symptom, seek medical advice promptly or speak to Check4Cancer about its diagnostic skin service.

Some symptoms feel awkward to mention. That doesn’t make them safe to ignore.

Speak to a healthcare professional if you notice:

Blood in your urine—even if it happens only once
Difficulty starting to urinate or a weaker flow
Needing to go more frequently or urgently
Regularly getting up at night to p*e
Feeling that your bladder hasn’t emptied
A lump, swelling or change in a testicle
Persistent pain in your side, back or lower abdomen
Weight loss or unusual tiredness

These symptoms are common and can be caused by many different conditions. Having one does not mean you have cancer, but it is important to have it checked.

If you notice blood in your urine, ask for an urgent GP appointment or contact NHS 111.

For other new or persistent symptoms, arrange an appointment with your GP.

This Urology Awareness Month don’t let embarrassment delay an important conversation.

07/09/2026

What does urology have to do with me?

Probably more than you think.

Urology isn’t just about men or prostates. It covers the urinary system in everyone, including the kidneys, bladder and urinary tract, as well as the prostate and male reproductive organs.

Urological health includes common conditions such as urinary tract infections, incontinence and kidney stones, as well as kidney, bladder, prostate, testicular and pe**le cancers.

Yet embarrassment can make it difficult to speak about changes involving urine, bladder control or intimate areas.

This Urology Awareness Month let’s make those conversations easier.

Know what is normal for you. Pay attention to changes. And if something doesn’t feel right, speak to a healthcare professional.

Know your body. Notice changes. Speak to someone.

Could you separate sun-safety fact from fiction?

From relying on the SPF in make-up to believing a base tan offers protection, common misconceptions can leave our skin more exposed to UV damage.

Remember:

* Check the UV index - not just the temperature.
* Combine sunscreen with shade and protective clothing.
* Choose at least SPF 30 with four or five-star UVA protection.
* Reapply sunscreen regularly and after swimming, sweating or towelling.
* Sun protection can reduce your risk of skin cancer, but it can’t remove it completely.
* Become familiar with your skin and pay attention to anything new, changing or unusual.

If something concerns you, don’t ignore it.

Speak to your GP or book a private Skin Cancer Diagnosis Check with Check4Cancer.

New figures from Cancer Research UK show that more than 20,000 people were diagnosed with melanoma in 2022. By 2040, that number is predicted to reach 26,500 cases every year.

It’s an important reminder to become familiar with your skin and notice what is normal for you.

Look out for:

· A new or changing mole

· A sore that doesn’t heal

· A mark, patch or lump that looks unusual

Ask someone you trust to check areas that are difficult to see, such as your back and scalp.

If something has changed or doesn’t look right, don’t put off seeking advice. Contact your GP or book a private skin cancer diagnostic check with an experienced Check4Cancer skin cancer specialist.

Take a closer look at your skin today.
