Simon Kirby MP for Brighton Kemptown, is supporting the fight against breast cancer by taking part in Breast Cancer Campaign’s biggest (and pinkest) fundraiser, Wear It Pink Day.
Over the last 10 years Wear It Pink has raised £23 million and on Friday, October 25 2013, people will come together in schools, colleges and businesses throughout the country to raise funds for Breast Cancer Campaign’s lifesaving research.
Simon said:
“Every year in the UK around 50,000 women and around 400 men are diagnosed with breast cancer. Sadly 12,000 women and 80 men die from this disease. This is why we need to support Breast Cancer Campaign’s fundraising efforts so they can continue to fund research which will one day lead to a cure.
“This is a great cause, and I would urge all of my constituents to join me in supporting this campaign by wearing something pink and donating £2.”
Breast Cancer Campaign vitally needs the money raised from Wear It Pink Day for its researchers to have the best possible chance to find a cure.
