MP highlights importance of Awareness

 John Baron MP is joining forces with Breast Cancer Campaign to raise awareness of its biggest fundraising event, wear it pink day. On Friday 28 October 2011 supporters in schools, colleges and businesses throughout the country are encouraged to don an item of pink in support of Campaign and each donate £2 to fund innovative world-class breast cancer research. Last year hundreds of thousands of people took part in wear it pink to help improve survival rates for the one in eight women who experience breast cancer during their lifetime.

 John Baron MP says

  “Every year in the UK, around 48,000 new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed in women. It is very important we continue to raise awareness of this disease and so detect it earlier to save more lives. I therefore encourage everyone in Basildon and Billericay to support wear it pink on October 28, to raise valuable funds for breast cancer research.”
