Meadowhall X Self Esteem for Breast Cancer Now

We’ve partnered with Yorkshire-born artist, Self Esteem, to launch a limited-edition t-shirt raising vital funds for breast cancer charity, Breast Cancer Now.

The limited-edition design is now on sale in the Customer Service and Collection Lounge on The Avenue, Upper Level.  Tees are £20 and 100% of every t-shirt sold will be donated to Breast Cancer Now!

The design of the t-shirt is based on the dome-inspired outfit worn on-stage by Self Esteem at Glastonbury 2022 as a tribute to Meadowhall, which she says has held a special place in her heart since childhood.

We’re teaming up to help get more people talking about breast cancer and raise important funds to put towards Breast Cancer Now’s research and support for people affected by the disease.

The t-shirt has been created in collaboration with Ollie Spragley, the designer of the original Glastonbury outfit, who has his own personal experience of breast cancer with this year marking the tenth anniversary of his mother passing due to the illness.

Breast Cancer Now is the UK’s largest breast cancer research and support charity, funding world-class research and life changing support for people affected by breast cancer.

The earlier breast cancer is diagnosed, the better the chance of successful treatment. Getting to know what your breasts look and feel like normally means it’s easier to spot any unusual changes and check them with your doctor.

Common breast cancer signs and symptoms include:

• A lump or swelling in the breast, upper chest or armpit. You might feel the lump, but not see it.
• Changes in the size or shape of the breast
• A change in skin texture i.e. puckering or dimpling of the skin
• A change in the colour of the breast – the breast may look red or inflamed
• Rash, crusting or changes to the nipple
• Any unusual discharge from either nipple
