This workshops is designed to run alongside PSHE classes, but can also be adapted for after school sessions for mother/career daughter evenings.
The first half of this workshop is similar to Daisy's Busom Buddies but also covers the different styles of bras to suit individual age and purpose.
For example; A very active young girl needs a good sports bra for maximum support and comfort. This will enable them to carry on with sports throughout school, college, and home life. This will help them feel more confident and comfortable in all their sporting activities.
We know only too well, that body image and peer pressure plays a huge part in young girls lives today.
By not having and wearing a correctly fitted bra for everyday purpose, sports and fitness activities, we know most girls will not continue with physical education! This is due to their lack of self-confidence and self-esteem. They feel too embarrassed about the size of their breasts and how they sometimes get in the way, when running or to jump up and down during physical fitness. It can also be painfull and uncomfortable, this is just a couple of examples why we offer breast care advice and give information in schools.
This workshop/session also has an added extra to Daisy's Busom Buddies. We are raising breast cancer awareness and teaching young ladies, why, when and how to carryout breast self-examination.
Community Breast Care is raising breast cancer awarness and by teaching breast self-examination and we are saving future lives through early diagnosis.
