We love to hear it ❤

National Reconciliation Week is a time for reflection, respect, and meaningful action.

At BreastScreen SA, reconciliation is something we actively work towards every day.

Across South Australia, our teams travel to remote and regional communities, attend events, and genuinely meet women where they are. More than delivering a service, this work is about building trust, forming genuine connections, and building long-term relationships with communities.

This is the kind of work that happens quietly, consistently, and at a grassroots level — led by people deeply committed to improving health outcomes for Aboriginal women.

We’re proud to share that this approach is making a difference. In 2025, BreastScreen SA recorded the highest number of Aboriginal women accessing our service in our history. Early data suggests that 2026 will see this number grow even further.

We thank the many services and organisations who partner with BreastScreen SA to help make breast cancer screening more accessible and equitable for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women — and we welcome new connections with organisations who would like to be involved.

As we mark National Reconciliation Week, we acknowledge there is still more to do — but we remain committed to being ‘ALL IN’ and walking this path together.

A breast screen is about finding breast cancer early, when it’s too small to feel and most easily treated.

Are you 50?
You're in good company!

If you haven't attended for a breast screen in your 40's then keep an eye on your mailbox.
We actively send letters to women once they turn 50 to invite them to have a breast screen!
