New potentially life-saving signs will be fitted across all M&S stores this month thanks to Megan's idea
An employee at M&S in Burnley is behind changes being made to all dressing rooms in stores across the country after making a suggestion directly to the firm's chief executive.
As a result of Megan's suggestion M&S is rolling out signage to more than 1,500 fitting rooms across the country with guidance on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer to raise awareness.Breast cancer awareness is really important to Megan who has a family history of the disease. After her mum was diagnosed with breast cancer, she began encouraging Megan to regularly check herself and ultimately inspired her to submit the idea to the Straight to Stuart scheme.
"I know that changes to your breasts, which can be one of the signs, are even more easily noticed when you’re thinking about new bras, so hopefully having the signs up in our change rooms at Burnley will inspire more customers to check themselves next time they come in for a BraFit.” The move is designed to aid early detection and encourage more people to regularly touch, look and check their breasts. Breast Cancer is the most common cancer in the UK, accounting for three in 20 of all cancer cases in females and males combined.
