In October, we have organised workshops devoted to breast cancer prophylactics within the ‘Pink October’ initiative. The workshops comprised a theoretical part on the general principles of prophylactics, as well as practical part where with the use of phantoms, the participants learned how to carry out self-checks. The initiative enjoyed great interest, with workshops held at the companies in Bielsko-Biała, Goleszów, Kęty, Oświęcim and Tychy.
