“In some ways it’s overwhelming,” said Annette.
“What an incredible woman she was because in the midst of her journey with cancer she was so outward looking.
“She was thinking about other people, thinking about the future generations. I’m just beyond grateful.
“I am cancer free and that is an incredible thing and a wonderful thing to be able to say.”
Hannah Harrison, who is the Sarah Harding Young Women’s Breast Cancer fellow, said: “Sarah’s legacy really is to reduce young women dying of breast cancer.
“Ladies are able to come in decades before regular NHS screening occurs.
“We test things like genetics from a saliva sample, we look at breast density using low-dose mammography, and we ask questions about lifestyle and family history.
“This screening has allowed us to identify women to be at high risk who have no family history, no knowledge of a risk.”
