"Check Your Boobies": Social media launch of Check Yourself animated short

On Wednesday, 1 March, the Irish Cancer Society’s Relay For Life Kilkenny, in association with the Marie Keating Foundation is launching an animated short film, Check Yourself, on social media in Ireland.

The purpose of the film is to educate people, both young and old, about the benefits of getting into the habit of performing self-checks for early signs of cancer. It is a lively, fun and descriptive film, featuring cancer survivors from Kilkenny who volunteered their time to being animated to help spread this important message.

Watch the short:

Please help spread the word about early detection of cancer by sharing the animation across your social media profiles.
