Richmond Pharmacology 'Get in the Pink' for Breast Cancer Awareness Month
The Facts
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in the UK after non-melanoma skin cancer and over 44,100 new cases are diagnosed every year
Breast cancer claims the lives of 12,500 women each year in the UK. Men can also get breast cancer but it is rare (around 335 cases are diagnosed each year)
Of those women diagnosed with breast cancer today, two-thirds are likely to survive for at least 20 years
