Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2026

Synonym(s):

According to the Singapore Cancer Registry Annual Report 2023, breast cancer remains the most common cancer diagnosed in females, with more than 13,000 cases reported in the period 2019 – 2023. It is also the leading cause of cancer death in women in Singapore.

Every October marks the Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM), a national campaign to raise awareness for this cause. This year, with the theme 'Breast Health Matters - Every Woman, Every Age', we aim to empower women to take action today by:

(a) increasing public awareness of breast cancer and healthy lifestyle changes; and

(b) motivating women to undergo mammogram screening.

SingHealth Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2026 Organising Committee has planned a great line-up of public events this September and October. Check them out below, register and save the dates in your calendar!

Breast Cancer Awareness Education Booths at SingHealth Institutions

When was the last time you thought about your breast health?

We know how easy it is to put health checks on the back burner when life gets hectic. But here's a gentle reminder: a few minutes spent knowing what to look for could be one of the most important things you do for yourself. Early detection completely changes the story of breast cancer, and it all starts with knowing your own body.

This 8 October 2026, our Breast Cancer Awareness Month Education Booths are popping up across SingHealth institutions! Drop by for simple, practical tips on self-examination and screening, because a few minutes today could make all the difference tomorrow.

No registration needed, just show up! Come alone or bring your whole squad, everyone is welcome!
