This week we are supporting the Wear It Pink campaign by undertaking various fundraising activities during the week. These will include cake and biscuit making which will be sold to staff and visitors (click below to be taken to the recipe of the respective days when posted), the serving of pink refreshments for a small contribution and the pinnacle of the week; a dress down event on Friday 31stOctober where the theme of the day will be pink. with it also being Halloween who knows what might happen.
Wear it pink is the biggest and best pink day during October whixh is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This year, Breast Cancer Campaign is daring everyone in the UK to wear an item of pink on Friday 31 October and donate £2 each to the charity to help us beat breast cancer.
If you do where does your donation go?
Breast Cancer Campaign uses all wear it pink donations to fund innovative, world-class research throughout the UK to understand how breast cancer develops, leading to improved diagnosis, treatment, prevention and cure.
Breast Cancer Campaign only funds research into breast cancer and will support research at any centre of excellence in the UK and the Republic of Ireland. The charity has a particular interest in supporting innovative research and will fund the best breast cancer research in the UK and the Republic, providing that it is of the highest quality.
They currently support 112 research projects, worth over £14.5 million in 50 centres of excellence across the UK.
Thanks to the donations raised they are able to fund projects like Dr John Maher’s at Kings College London, who has developed a unique way of treating breast cancer by using the body’s own immune system.

Be breast aware
To be breast aware means becoming familiar with how your breasts look and feel. Understand how your breasts may change at different times during the month (when you are having your period) and as you get older.
- Know what is normal for you
- Look and feel
- Know what changes to look for
- Report any changes without delay
- Attend breast screening if aged 50 or over
