May is Bladder Cancer Awareness Month. The main symptom of bladder cancer is blood in your pee – but if you’ve noticed any anything that’s unusual for you, talk to your doctor. In most cases it won’t be cancer – but if it is getting diagnosed early can make all the difference 💙

Our latest stats reveal that clothing choices may influence where skin cancer develops. Melanoma, the most serious form of cancer, can appear anywhere on the body – but it’s most likely to develop on the torso for men, and on the legs and feet for women. Find out more 👇

Seeing blood in your pee can be a sign of kidney or bladder cancer. It affects men as well as women. It’s probably nothing serious, but if it is cancer, the sooner we spot it, the easier it is to treat. So don’t put it off, see your GP. #GMBloodinPee

This is your monthly reminder to check your breasts! Anyone can get breast cancer and it’s important to check your breasts or chest regularly for symptoms. On the 1st of the month remember to check, or at the same time each month avoiding your period. #CheckonTheFirst
