Together, we have raised an incredible £271,667.

That's £1,287,322 in 6 years.

We can't even begin to explain how grateful we are to all of you, our community, for helping us to make our Feel Your Breast campaign everything that it is.

Every year that we launch this campaign, we feel so inspired.

Every single one of us at Lounge HQ makes this campaign what it is, and every year we feel so moved by the stories we hear, the conversations that unfold and of course, one of the key missions of this campaign, the awareness that we raise - for someone like you.

For someone like you to check your breasts.

For someone like you to feel empowered.

For someone like you to look at this campaign, at some point in your busy day, your busy life... and realise you can see yourself in the eyes of these incredible women who are bearing all for Feel Your Breast. In their smiles, their tears and their laughter... in their raw and real stories.


Feel Your Breast is more than just a campaign. It's a movement.

And while now the campaign itself for 2024 may be over, the movement continues.

The Lounge Foundation is on a mission to make a real and genuine impact on deserving lives, with a focus on women's and children's health.

All funds raised this year will be donated to the Foundation to continue its incredible work, so… what do the next steps look like for us?

Well, honestly, there is so much already happening and so much in store for the charity’s future.

Our partnership with Birmingham’s Children’s Hospital continues, and there are some truly amazing and inspirational projects under way. So watch this space as we continue to tell the journey we’re on as Changemakers charity.

Our Legacy Project grant programme is also almost complete, with so many amazing and deserving women who have been impacted by cancer being granted through the scheme, to help them on their journey through a range of different themes. From ‘making memories’ for those who may be still living with cancer and experiencing end of life care, to therapy, self care and general living. The real and genuine impact of this campaign is truly moving, with over 100 women receiving grants from the charity.

The future is bright for the charity, as we continue to build out our strategy and build out further plans for future charity partnerships, new grant programmes and further opportunities to continue fulfilling our mission to drive meaningful change.

We would love for you to stay connected on this journey with us as we bring some amazing initiatives and projects to life over the coming months and years.

A big thanks to all of you to making this year a special one 🫶 & as always, we encourage you to keep checking those boobs, once a month, every month. It's the self-care act that you should be prioritising 💗
