Dame Sally’s classy visit welcomed

Bosom Buddies, a group that supports women with breast cancer, was visited by Dame Sally Davies, the former chief medical officer for England.

Dame Sally, who is also the master of Trinity College, visited the group at the Bodywork Company Dance Studios on Monday, October 21.

Founded by Sheila Kissane-Marshall – herself a breast cancer survivor – Bosom Buddies organises tailored fitness and advice sessions, over a 12-week living well course, to help breast cancer survivors regain their physical and emotional strength.

Sheila said: “Dame Sally came to the class and did the dance element of it.

It [the programme] has been really well-received and I really want to be able to roll it out nationally.”
