ALMOND VALLEY MSP WEARS IT PINK FOR BREAST CANCER NOW FUNDRAISER

Angela Constance MSP for Almond Valley constituency added a dash of pink to their usual attire to support Breast Cancer Now's wear it pink fundraiser, which takes place on Friday 18 October.

Since launching in 2002, wear it pink has had an enormous impact on the lives of those affected by breast cancer, raising over £33 million to date. Ms Constance is calling for their constituents to join her by signing up for wear it pink and helping to fund world-class breast cancer research and life changing support for those affected by the disease.

Angela Constance MSP, said: 

"Every year in Scotland, around 4,700 women are diagnosed with breast cancer and over 1,000 women die of the disease . That's why I am encouraging my constituents to take part in Breast Cancer Now's wear it pink day on Friday 18 October. 

"The money raised by this wonderful event has such a huge impact, allowing Breast Cancer Now to fund vital research and support for those living with a diagnosis. I hope that everybody will wear it pink this October and support this very important cause.

Anyone can take part in wear it pink. Some people will choose to hold a cake sale, while others will opt to organise a raffle and some will arrange a pink fancy dress day at their school or workplace. No matter how people chose to wear it pink, all the money raised will help to fund vital breast cancer research and support.

Wear it pink on 18 October and raise funds for breast cancer research and support. Visit wearitpink.org to register and claim your free fundraising pack.
