EUROPA DONNA has declared 15 October "Breast Health Day"

EUROPA DONNA, the European Breast Cancer Coalition, is an independent non-profit organisation whose members are affiliated groups from countries throughout Europe. The Coalition works to raise awareness of breast cancer and to mobilise the support of European women in pressing for improved breast cancer education, appropriate screening, optimal treatment and increased funding for research. EUROPA DONNA represents the interests of European women regarding breast cancer to local and national authorities as well as to institutions of the EU.
EUROPA DONNA has declared 15 October "Breast Health Day" and will be hosting a special inauguration with prominent speakers and all its national representatives in Milan. The aim of the day is to disseminate information about breast health and to raise awareness of prevention and early detection of breast cancer among women and girls across Europe.
