We’re Breast Cancer Now, the charity that’s steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care. We’re here for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future. By 2050, we believe everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will live – and be supported to live well. But we need to act now.

Story

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Hello all,</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Way back in November I set my self the challenge of running a race for Breakthrough Breastcancer, a fantastic charity doing fantastic work, as it was my first big pitch win for the agency I work for, and they loved the creative that I did and I am hoping to unveil a new fancy-pants site to knock the socks off everyone&rsquo;s expectations and vastly increase the current number of donations via the website!!!</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">As a direct result of Breakthrough&rsquo;s work, fewer women die of breast cancer today than ten years ago, but in order to do this </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">they </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">need to raise over &pound;20 million each year and are almost entirely funded by voluntary donations. Every penny will help them create a <span>future free from the fear of breast cancer.</span> <br></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">As I can now run 5k quite comfortably I could have opted for another 10k- but thought if Breakthrough have set themselves such a big challenge so should I &ndash; and will be running the Edinburgh Half Marathon on the 27 May with the lovely Brooklyn Baldwin, helped by training with my 7:AM (YES THAT&rsquo;S :AM) boot camp buddy the lovely Lowri Clarke. So please dig deep in your pockets and donate to this fantastic charity.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Big love</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">xxx</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></span></p>
