Life-saving, free iPhone app

There is a lovely new iPhone app which is totally free, aimed at helping women to check for breast cancer. No doctors visit or being shy about getting a check up with this, simply download the free app on your iPhone or iPod and away you go!

The app says:

"One in nine women in the UK will get breast cancer in their lifetime. The earlier the cancer is found, the better the chance of beating it. This app will help women be breast aware and could make all the difference.

The app includes a breast check video demonstrating how women can check their breasts, the ability to set your own reminders for a
breast check, and a risk report to assess how your lifestyle could affect your risk of getting breast cancer.

The app also contains information about Breakthrough Breast Cancer and offers you a number of ways to get involved and help us continue our pioneering work in the fight against breast cancer."

Please let your friends and family know they can get this app for free and hopefully it will help to save some lives :) x
