BACKING PINK

Neil Findlay MSP pulled on some eye-catching pink clothes at the Scottish Parliament to encourage constituents to take part in the UK’s biggest, brightest and pinkest fundraiser, wear it pink, on Friday, October 20. Wear it Pink back for its 16th year, calling on supporters across the country to add a flash of pink to their wardrobe for the day and raise money for Breast Cancer Now’s life-saving breast cancer research. Wear it pink is now in its 16th year, with the annual fundraising campaign raising a staggering total of £30 million to date for Breast Cancer Now’s life-saving research. Anyone can take part,

whether at work, at home or at school. All you have to do is wear something pink and donate what you can.

Neil Findlay MSP said:“Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in Scotland - unfortunately most people know of someone affected by this terrible disease. Every year around 4600 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and almost 1000 people will die of it. The illness has also affected my family, I know the benefits of good care and support and how that helps patients and there families cope and thrive. Wear it pink is an important opportunity to stand together and support Breast Cancer Now’s life-saving research. I would like to urge local people across my constituency to join me by wearing it pink on Friday 20 October and show their support for Breast Cancer Now.”
