Breast Cancer UK

About Breast Cancer UK

At Breast Cancer UK, we believe in a future where fewer people have to face breast cancer as we know that at least 1 in 4 breast cancers are preventable through lifestyle and environmental factors. We exist to make that potential a reality: by empowering people with knowledge, driving evidence-based research, and campaigning for systemic change. We guide people on practical steps to reduce their risk of breast cancer, from diet and weight management to avoiding harmful chemicals and advocating for healthier environments. A distinctive area of our work is shining a spotlight on Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) — substances in everyday products that may interfere with hormones and increase cancer risk. We collaborate with like-minded organisations to amplify our voice on this critical issue, and we fund research we believe has the potential to be a “game-changer.”
