Sarah Harding breast cancer study spots 88 women at risk (legacy) (4) (UK) 17/Mar/2025

A breast cancer study created in memory of Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding has already helped identify more than 80 young women who are at risk of developing breast cancer.

The Breast Cancer Risk Assessment in Young Women (BCAN-RAY) study was set up in May 2023 inspired by the singer's desire to find new ways of spotting the disease earlier.

Harding, of Stockport, died in 2021 at the age of 39.

The second phase of the study involves setting up the Sarah Harding Young Women's Breast Cancer Fellowship, which will include a research lab dedicated to examining the factors which put younger women at risk.

A fitting tribute to this young woman who entertained and inspired many people.
