Six-Month Roundup: Absolute Collagen’s Impactful Partnership with CoppaFeel!

We’re so proud of our partnership with CoppaFeel!. Six months into our journey of helping spread their chest checking and life saving message, we wanted to share what we’ve been up to. This collaboration has been filled with heartwarming moments, impactful initiatives, and a strong sense of community. Here are our highlights: 

The Map My Baps Trek: A Day to Remember

On May 25th, we achieved something extraordinary with our Map My Baps Trek. We mapped the biggest pair of baps as we walked through the beautiful Chiltern Hills, raising over £16,000 with all proceeds going to  CoppaFeel! This fantastic event brought together the wonderful Emma Willis, her husband Matt, some of our lovely Absoluters, and members of the Absolute Collagen and CoppaFeel! teams.

A Day of Laughter, Tears, and Community

It was an absolutely fantastic day filled with laughter, tears, and an incredible sense of togetherness. We united as a community to raise awareness for breast cancer in young people and the importance of checking your chest.

This cause is close to our hearts, especially following the recent passing of Kris Hallenga, the founder of CoppaFeel!. We could think of no better way to celebrate her legacy and spread her life saving message.

A Huge Thank You

We want to extend a massive thank you to everyone involved. The Absolute Collagen team worked tirelessly to make this event a success, and the CoppaFeel! team has been an incredible partner throughout. But most importantly, we want to thank all our Absoluters who participated and supported us on the day, as well as those Absoluters who got out and Mapped their Baps throughout June and tracked it on Strava. 

Your dedication and spirit made this trek unforgettable!

Absolute Collagen’s Commitment to Breast Cancer Awareness

We are incredibly proud of our ongoing partnership with CoppaFeel!, the UK's only youth focused breast cancer awareness charity. At Absolute Collagen, our mission is to champion confidence and wellness, which aligns perfectly with CoppaFeel!’s goal of educating and empowering individuals about the signs of breast cancer and the importance of checking your chest.

Spreading the Word: Education and Awareness

This partnership aims to educate everyone about the signs of breast cancer and drive relevancy for young people when it comes to breast cancer. Many of us didn't have the awareness and understanding about our health when we were younger. With CoppaFeel!’s support, we are dedicated to changing that narrative. Our joint efforts focus on equipping the younger generation with the knowledge and confidence to  check their chest monthly and go to their GP if they find something that’s not normal for them.

Empowering Through Education

Our collaboration includes distributing educational materials and hosting informative sessions. One significant initiative is our easy to follow Chest Check 101 List that guides you through the steps of how to check your chest. It's a simple yet powerful tool to ensure everyone can perform regular checks and stay informed about their breast health.

A Shared Mission

"All the incredible fundraising and awareness raising that Absolute Collagen will be running will make such a huge difference to helping us achieve our mission; to give all young people the best chance of surviving breast cancer, by ensuring that every case is diagnosed early and correctly," says Amber, Partnerships Manager at CoppaFeel!.

Reflecting On Our Journey and Looking Ahead

Reflecting on the past six months, we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved together. From the funds raised to the awareness spread, every effort has made a difference. But this is just the beginning. We have so much more planned, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

More to Come…

Keep an eye on our social media channels and monthly roundup for updates on upcoming initiatives, fundraising activities, and opportunities to participate. Together, we can raise awareness of CoppaFeel!'s lifesaving message and encourage everyone to check their chests.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with us. Let’s continue to make a difference, one step at a time.
