Springwatch presenter Michaela Strachan makes an appeal on behalf of Breast Cancer Now, the UK's largest breast cancer research charity. Last year, Michaela was diagnosed with breast cancer, so she knows only too well what it's like to live with this disease which will affect one in eight women in the UK in their lifetime.

The film features Connie, who was diagnosed with breast cancer aged 23. Following a mastectomy, Connie found that the cancer had spread to her liver. We also meet Jim, who lost his wife Moira to secondary breast cancer.

Breast Cancer Now believe that the key to a world where no one dies of breast cancer is research into the disease. That's why Breast Cancer Now funds researchers like Dr Paul Shore at the University of Manchester (also featured), who has identified a gene that causes breast cancer cells to spread. Show less
