Wear It Pink Campaign: A Celebration of Support and Awareness

Published: 25/10/2024

At Right at Home Chippenham, we recently came together to support the 'Wear It Pink' campaign organised by Breast Cancer Now. This important initiative aims to raise funds for life-saving breast cancer research and provide essential support to those affected by this disease.

 

The event launched on 18 October, and we were thrilled to see our team and clients participating with enthusiasm. Whether sporting pastel pink socks or going all out in hot pink attire, everyone’s contributions made a significant impact.

 

Every year, over 55,000 people are diagnosed with breast cancer, making it the most common cancer in women in the UK. By participating in 'Wear It Pink,' our team not only showed their support for those affected but also helped raise awareness about this critical health issue.

 

How We Got Involved

Our team rallied around the cause in several ways:

 

  • Wearing Pink: Many of our CareGivers encouraged clients, friends, and family to join in, sharing their photos to spread the word.
  • Fundraising Activities: We hosted a "Get a Number" game, where participants bought numbers for a chance to win half of the total donations raised.
  • Sweet Treats and Sale Table: Our bake sale and gift table allowed team members to donate while indulging in delicious treats or picking up thoughtful gifts.

 

Thank You for Your Support!

A huge thank you to everyone who participated! Together, we’ve taken meaningful steps toward raising awareness and supporting vital research for breast cancer. Thank you for making a difference!
