Wear it pink and help cancer fight
Dundee MSPs Shona Robison and Joe FitzPatrick are joining forces with Breast Cancer Campaign for its fundraising drive, Wear It Pink, on October 31.
This year's theme is Dare to Wear and both MSPs are urging residents, young and old to get their craziest pink outfits on.

Taking part in the fundraising event couldn't be easier.

Whether in an office, at school, or simply popping to the shops, on October 31, donate £2 and wear an item of pink — the more daring, the better.

Donations will allow the charity to continue funding its groundbreaking research across the UK.

“Every year over 4000 people in Scotland are diagnosed with breast cancer,” said Ms Robison.

“Like many others, I know people who have lost friends and family members to breast cancer.

“Both Joe and I would like to encourage everyone in Dundee and throughout the country to support Wear It Pink.”

Breast Cancer Campaign has set a target for this year of £3.5 million.
