One year ago, we released our second collaboration with breast cancer awareness charity CoppaFeel!. Since then, the pieces (in particular the Watermelon Hoops) have become some of our bestselling styles, and we’re so happy to be helping raise funds and awareness for the amazing work that they do.
In the year since we released the Watermelon collection, we’ve raised a total of £5,460 for CoppaFeel!

If you're forgetful, you can sign up to their text alerts. This takes the guesswork out of regular checking completely, so all you have to do is sit back and wait for your monthly reminder. You can also get these via email.

As well handy guides on their website, you can also order a sticker for your shower that acts as a daily reminder to have a feel. These are great for teens and gifting to friends to make sure they’re checking too!

You can book a ‘Boobette webinar’ through the CoppaFeel! website, where one of the team members gives you an online presentation with information and tips on detecting breast cancer in it's early stages.
From the CoppaFeel! website, you can also order resources to help you spread the message. Whether that’s fundraising within your community or setting aside some time in the workplace, they have lots of great information and assets for you to use.
You can shop the W&M x CoppaFeel! Watermelon collection here. We donate £5 from each W&M x CoppaFeel! item that we sell (which equates to 100 SMS boob check reminders). Thanks to everyone who has bought something so far!
