Paint the Town Orange in aid of Cancer!

Tuesday 22nd October, 2019

For the month of October, we’re asking businesses in local towns across the UK to create an orange window display and wear orange clothing to raise vital funds for Stand Up to Cancer. Cancer changes lives, and so do we. By encouraging your staff and customers to get involved, we can beat cancer at its own game. Your cash will support researchers to get new tests and treatments across the line faster, so more lives get saved. We will equip you with balloons, bunting, posters, flyers and an orange bucket to help you collect donations and raise some cancer-crushing cash.

All we need is a SU2C champion in each shop, business or organisation to get involved and spearhead the campaign. CONTACT US today to sign up by calling 07809775114 or emailing BridgwaterCRUK@yahoo.co.uk.
