STOCKTON North MP Alex Cunningham added a dash of pink to his usual attire to support Breast Cancer Now’s wear it pink fundraiser,
Since launching in 2002, Wear It Pink has raised over £33m to date. Mr Cunningham is calling for his constituents to join him, by signing up for wear it pink and helping to make possible life-saving breast cancer research and life changing support for those affected by the disease.
He said: “Every year in the UK, around 55,000 women and around 350 men are given the devastating news that they have breast cancer. That’s why I’m 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."
Breast Cancer Now’s 2019 wear it pink day takes place on Friday 18 October, helping to raise funds for breast cancer research and support.
