Story

In September our team of 45 will be walking, hobbling or running the 10k! Heather has had breast cancer twice and has become an ambassador for the PBC charity. She also needed a double mastectomy, and due to this, she'll be taking part in her new lingerie "The Skarlette". This range was launched in May as a result of Kate making a bra for a flat woman, because there really is little alternative. So what better way to show off her talents than to run a 10K wearing it? The Skarlette brand was founded by Heather & Kate and they hope to raise awareness of breast health, provide beautiful lingerie for women living flat and to donate a proportion of their Skarlette sales to the charity too.We'll be taking on the Great Manchester Run for Prevent Breast Cancer, because it's the only charity in the UK dedicated to the prediction and prevention of breast cancer. Unlike many cancer charities, they focus on preventing, rather than curing. Promoting early diagnosis, screening and lifestyle changes, they believe we can stop the problem before it starts. Every year, in the UK, over 55,000 individuals are diagnosed 150 people a day. And every year, we lose 11,500 to this disease. That is 11,500 too many. In fact, it is 55,000 too many. With your support we can help fight this disease together.
