People are being urged to know their bodies and check for changes this breast cancer awareness month.
October marks breast cancer awareness month, which according to the NHS, is the most common type of cancer in the UK. Most women diagnosed with breast cancer are over the age of 50, but younger women can also get breast cancer.
Earlier this year, the ECHO reported how Cheryl Scott began to feel more tired back in 2019 and was experiencing "night sweats" and put it down to being busy. But after finding a lump on holiday, she was soon given a diagnosis of breast cancer.
