HAIRDRESSERS in Adderbury were 'in the pink' on Friday to support a breast cancer awareness and fundraising campaign.

Staff at Squires Hairdressers took part in the Breast Cancer Care charity's 'go pink' campaign to highlight the disease which affects 42,000 women and 300 men a year in the UK.

The charity says breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK and accounts for almost one in three of all cancer cases in women.

At Squires, staff wore pink costumes and collected cash from customers.

Owner Douglas Ogilvie said: "We all decided to dress up and decorate the salon. Raising funds for breast cancer research is important, but raising awareness is essential.

"It was a great day and all our customers entered into the spirit of the event, and I think the day was a great success."
