Graysons champions breast cancer awareness campaign through podcast partnership

Graysons is a firm that is renowned for championing the careers of female solicitors and it is putting its weight behind a brand new initiative to increase awareness of hereditary breast cancer.

Partners and staff at Graysons – which has teamed with DJ Becky Measures and her podcast

We are teaming up with radio DJ Becky Measures and her mother Wendy Watson MBE on their brand new ‘Mother Daughter Breast of Friends’ podcast.

97% of people who carry a faulty gene still don’t know and the show aims to raise awareness and navigate the complexities of genetics.

Wendy Watson made history 30 years ago when she became the first woman in Britain to have both breasts removed in preventative surgery. Her daughter, Becky Measures, underwent the same procedure in 2004 after finding out she had an 80 to 90 percent risk of developing breast cancer.

Bradie Pell, partner at Graysons, said:

“Few people have been more inspirational in this field than Wendy Watson and her daughter Becky Measures. Our support means awareness of hereditary breast cancer can spread far further and, for a firm that employs a high percentage of females, this is very important.”

The podcast can be found at https://motherdaughterbreastfriends.co.uk/

Becky Measures said:

“Having Graysons support the podcast has not only enabled us to carry on spreading this incredibly important message, it has also highlighted many factors that people don’t always want to talk about, which we will be discussing with them in the podcast.

“Building this relationship with a firm that has such a long-standing, highly respected reputation within our community is massively humbling, and we are so grateful to have them with us on the next leg of our journey.”
