Alyn and Deeside MP Mark Tami is joining forces with Breast Cancer Campaign to raise awareness of its fundraising event, Wear it Pink.
On Friday, October 29th, supporters in schools, colleges and businesses across Flintshire will be donning an item of pink clothing in support of the campaign.
Last year over one million people across the UK took part in the Wear it Pink event to help improve survival rates for the one in nine women who experience breast cancer during their lifetime.
Mr Tami said: “every year in the UK more than 45,000 new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed in women.
“Although it is rare, men can also suffer from breast cancer, with around 300 diagnosed each year.
“I know people who have lost friends and family to the disease and I would like to encourage everyone to support Wear it Pink on October 29th.”
