This October we’re asking you to join us in raising money for the Worcestershire Breast Unit Haven – whose funds go directly towards the women and men of Worcestershire presenting with breast care needs
In Worcestershire alone, over 600 people are diagnosed each year with breast cancer, with 1 in 3 women in the county needing to see a breast specialist at some point in their life.
Breast Cancer Awareness month is a worldwide annual campaign to raise awareness and funds to help research, fund and provide the best facilities possible for those with Breast Cancer.
Join us this October to think pink and do what you can to help those individuals and families affected by this disease #everybodyknowssomebody #worcsthinkpink
