Mastectomy Pride

Thank God for mastectomies. Why should anyone feel ashamed? They are our badges of honour and courage

Twenty years ago it was treated like a shameful secret. Take a Break has helped change that, bringing breast surgery into the daylight. Now we go further with our new campaign, Mastectomy Pride.

Mastectomy is a commonly performed surgical
procedure.The benefits can bring the chance of life. Yet there is still a stigma attached to the operation. Take a Break wants to break the taboo.
