Lynne Featherstone MP supporting Breast Cancer Awareness

Lynne Featherstone, Lib Dem MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, is joining forces with Breast Cancer Campaign in its award winning 'wear it pink' day on Friday 27 October 2006 as part of breast cancer awareness month. By making a donation of just £2 you can dress as brightly as you like, as long as it's pink. Your donation will allow Breast Cancer Campaign to continue researching the cure and help the one woman in nine in the UK that will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. It's as simple as that. Last year our fun loving "pinkies" raised a staggering £1.69 million with our target £2.1 million this year.

Lynne Featherstone MP says "Every year over 13,000 people in the UK die from breast cancer. There are many women and families in our area that are touched by this illness that is why I am supporting Breast Cancer Campaign's ''wear it pink' day. Encourage your family and friends to do the same. It's great fun and the money raised will go towards valuable breast cancer research."

Help us reach our target and take part in the UK's original and best pink day. To register and to receive your free fundraising pack either call freephone 0800 1073104; or visit www.wearitpink.co.uk
