Coppafeel! are currently looking for a student to take on the Uni B**b Team Leader role at Reading University!

CoppaFeel! exists to educate and remind every young person in the UK that checking their chest isn’t only fun, it could save their life. Breast Cancer will affect 1 in 7 women in their lifetimes, with 400 men being diagnosed annually in the UK.

Uni B**b Team Leaders are the very important folk responsible for rallying teams of students to bring boob-love to campuses across the UK. As a Uni B**b Team Leader, you have two main goals:

⭐️ Recruit a team of students to help you spread the CoppaFeel! message on-campus
⭐️ Get students talking about and checking their chests

We’re recruiting for our next cohort of Student Brand Ambassadors, the Uni B**b Team, and are looking for students who are keen to step into the leadership role & bring chest chat to their campus!
