2026-2027
We are continuing to support Scannappeal (charity number 1215590) for 2026-2027.
Recently Scannappeal and Buckinghamshire Health Care Charity united to create one stronger charity to support healthcare across the county. By joining together their supporters, fundraising and expertise, more projects can be supported making a bigger difference for communities, patients and staff. Scannappeal will continue to use their name during this transition period.
Scannappeal have been excellent charity partners and we look forward to working with them again this year. More information to follow.
2025-2026
For 2025-2026 CAWC have raised close to £20,000 for Scannappeal Mobile Breast Screening Appeal, (charity number 1215590). This money will go towards Scannappeal’s £410,000 Mobile Breast Screening Appeal which was launched in October 2024 with the aim to fully fund a brand new fully equipped state of the art mobile mammography screening unit for South Buckinghamshire. Patients living in areas such as Princess Risborough, Stokenchurch, Prestwood, Chesham, Chalfont Peter, Marlow Gerrards Cross and Denham will benefit from more convenient screening programmes closer to home without travelling to hospital. Breast Screening is a vital tool in detecting cancer early, often identifying small changes in breast tissue before any other symptoms appear.
In 2024, 27,609 women in Buckinghamshire were invited for routine breast Screening. Of those 815 required further assessment. While some received re-assurance, 179 women were diagnosed with breast cancer- many not feeling a lump or other symptoms. Without screening, these diagnoses could have come later, limiting treatment outcomes.
With our support, this appeal can help detect cancer earlier, offer more treatment options and ultimately save lives.
