Breast Screen Victoria and the Victorian Pride Centre are inviting women and trans and gender diverse people aged 50 to 74 that have no breast symptoms for a free, 10-minute breast/chest screen.
Breast Screen Victoria have been Rainbow Tick accredited since 2019. This means that their screening services are a safe and inclusive experience for all women and trans and gender diverse people.
Join them for an inclusive screening in their mobile truck, parked outside the Palais Theatre.
Breast cancer develops in 1 in 7 people that were assigned female at birth in Victoria. People that were assigned male at birth have a lower risk, but their risk increases when they are on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) for 5 years or more. Breast/chest screens can find cancers that are too small to feel. The sooner cancer is found, the more successful treatment is likely to be.
