Republic of Ireland Women Ireland give support to Breast Cancer Awareness
19 October 2020; Republic of Ireland captain Katie McCabe poses for a portrait at their training base in Duisburg, Germany, where her side have linked up with Breast Cancer Ireland to help raise awareness in the month of October. With one in nine women diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime and 30 per cent of those between the ages of 20-50, the Ireland players are keen to use their profile to shine a spotlight on these worrying statistics. As they prepare for Friday’s UEFA Women’s EURO 2022 qualifier away to Ukraine in Kiev, the Ireland squad took time to raise awareness by wearing Breast Cancer Ireland face-masks, which can be bought here to support funding for further research.
