PINK OCTOBER: Second edition of the Tour des Roberts

The Côte-d’Or Committee of the Ligue contre le cancer offers a series of events and video broadcasts to raise awareness of the risk of breast cancer.

Pink October 2021: the Côte-d’Or Committee of the League against cancer presents the second edition of the “Roberts’ tour”

Simple and 100% reimbursed: breast cancer screening can save your life

Breast cancer is the deadliest cancer in women: every year, nearly 58,459 * cases are detected and more than 12,146 * women die from it in France. However, the screening rate continues to drop: only 55.5 * of women were screened in 2020 in Côte-d’Or.

DID YOU KNOW ?

If today some still speak of “roberts” about a part of the female body, we owe it to Édouard ROBERT, inventor of the eponymous bottle. This inventor-manufacturer will be the symbol of artificial breastfeeding for almost 50 years.

At the end of the 1860s, while an innovation accentuated the production of “long-hose baby bottles” of rubber, Édouard ROBERT, entrepreneur from Dijon, developed his “ROBERT bottle with valve” (long hose system with a second hole called “valve” for flow regulation). In 1873 and 1874, the ROBERT valve bottle received two medals of honor in Paris (1873) and Marseille (1874 by the Société Protectrice de l’Enfance).

Concerned about its mission to raise awareness of breast cancer screening, the Committee will organize information and prevention workshops for staff from Côte-d’Orian companies (Galeries Lafayette, JTEKT, E. Leclerc Beaune, AESIO Mutuelle, Divia…).

In parallel, stands selling promotional products for the benefit of the association will be organized throughout October for the general public.
