Sir – Witney in the Pink is being held on Saturday, October 4, with a cake and bric-a-brac stall, entertainment and street collection.
We are asking all local shops and businesses to dress their windows in pink and there will be a prize for the best dressed shop window and best dressed staff.
Witney has always given tremendous support to this event which raises money for the Abingdon-based charity Against Breast Cancer who fund the exciting and innovative Diet and Lifestyle Study taking place through the UK and is the largest of its kind in the world.
The Against Breast Cancer Witney Action Team regularly raise £10,000 plus every year to help fund this research.
Witney in the Pink is our biggest fundraising event and this will be our 12th or 13th year. Sadly, it may also be our last if we don’t get more help on the day. We need helpers to blow up balloons on the Friday evening and to distribute them throughout Witney early Saturday morning. We need cakes, bric-a-brac and people willing to shake a tin. If you can help please contact me at jchattoe@hotmail.com or phone 01993 848539.
Jeanne Chattoe, Chair of Trustees, Chair of Witney Action Team, Against Breast Cancer
