My story
Hello
Thanks to an idea that sparked great interest on Facebook, a large group of ladies are willing to bravely give up their time and their tops in order to pose for a long photograph of 130 Brave Woman. Why 130? Because according to Cancer Research UK's site, that is the number of women each day diagnosed with a cancer. (No breasts will actually visable in the final image due to hand positioning).
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
The final image will be shown on the internet with an encouragement for viewers to dig deep and donate still more. We will also sell small versions of the image (whole and in sections) to the models, families and friends, the profits of which will all head to Cancer Reseach UK as well.
So please dig deep and donate now.

All money finally handed to the local branch! Have emailed the charity with regards to seeing if they want to use the full image. This collection page closes down in 1 day.
This project is now finished but fund raising is still coming in. Prints will go on sale shortly. See the results: Gigapan: http://www.gigapan.com/gigapans/123348 Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_-6L5gX_RE
A mini preview of the first 93 out of 130 girls has been made into a short video and is on youtube for viewing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XxOpd5XkY4
