COPPAFEEL

COPPAFEEL! AIMS IS TO STAMP OUT LATE DETECTION AND MISDIAGNOSIS OF BREAST CANCER BY ENSURING THAT PEOPLE KNOW THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF BREAST CANCER, KNOW WHAT THEIR BREASTS LOOK AND FEEL LIKE NORMALLY, CHECK THEIR BREASTS REGULARLY THROUGHOUT THEIR LIFETIME AND HAVE THE CONFIDENCE TO SEEK MEDICAL REFERRAL WHEN THEY DETECT ABNORMALITIES.
