Chloe Smith MP supports funding of breast cancer research

 



Chloe Smith, Member of Parliament for Norwich North, is taking part in the Breast Cancer Campaign to raise awareness of its award winning fundraising event, wear it pink, on Friday 30 October. She is urging residents, young and old to get their pink outfits on in support of this worthy cause .

Chloe is encouraging schools, colleges and businesses throughout Norwich to wear it pink in support of Campaign and donate £2 each to fund innovative world-class breast cancer research.

Last year over one and a half million people took part in wear it pink to help improve survival rates for the one in nine women who experience breast cancer during their lifetime. This recession busting fundraiser is affordable and easy to take part in, giving everyone the chance to help make a difference.

Chloe, who also took part in this summer's Race for Life for Cancer Research UK, said "Every year over 45,500 women and 300 men in the UK are diagnosed with breast cancer. I know that many of the people of Norwich North have been affected by breast cancer through the loss of loved ones. I would like to encourage everyone in Norwich and throughout the country to support the event on October 30, to raise valuable funds for breast cancer research."
