Embroidery & Education: A Breast Cancer Awareness Workshop!

Busted is collaborating with UM Wellbeing Movement to bring you a unique breast cancer awareness workshop 🩷

Join us for an informative, hands-on session on breast health, where you’ll learn how to perform self-checks using balloons, understand key signs and symptoms, and the importance of early detection.

Alongside this, enjoy a creative embroidery class—learn basic stitches and make your own artwork, boob-themed or inspired by you.

By combining female health education with a creative activity, this workshop aims to create a safe and comfortable space where conversations can flow freely and taboos around breast health can be broken.

Hope to see you there!

Busted is a small project, created from passion and interest in female health and education. Our workshops focus on breast cancer awareness, risk factors, signs and symptoms and early detection through teaching how to perform a self-check. Women, girls, and anyone with breast tissue—of any age—should know that something as simple as a 2-minute self-check each month can not only lead to earlier detection of cancerous growths, but more importantly, help us understand our own bodies and recognise what is normal for each of us. Combining this informative workshop with an artistic activity, we hope to create a comfortable creative space in which we can break the taboo that surrounds the topic!
