Homes builder supports breast cancer charity
Construction staff swapped their usual hard hats and high-vis jackets for pink gear as they supported a breast cancer charity.
The site team at The Lilies on Welshpool Road, a Barratt Homes development, dressed up to raise awareness for Breast Cancer Now, as part of the 'Wear it Pink' campaign.
Wear it pink was first introduced more than 20 years ago and has raised more than £39 million for the organisation.
The charity helps towards funding cutting edge research across the UK and Ireland to help find a cure for breast cancer at all stages.
Its mission is to make sure by 2050, everyone with breast cancer lives and is well-supported.
In addition to donning the pink PPE, Barratt homes made a donation of £500 the charity to support its work.
Adrian Evans, managing director at Barratt Homes West Midlands, said: “As a leading housebuilder, it’s extremely important to us to support charities and communities in the areas in which we build new homes. We hope our donation will help Breast Cancer Now to continue its important work.
“Our construction teams always enjoy the opportunity to wear the pink PPE for the day, and this will have sparked a lot of conversations on site to hopefully raise awareness of the campaign and Breast Cancer Now’s efforts.”
