Ruth says:
“Breast cancer is a cause close to my heart. When I was younger I used to help my mother in her beauty salon and a lot of her clients were women who had been diagnosed with breast cancer. These women have so much courage and strength. They were such an inspiration to me then and I now want to show my support for a charity that helps people living with breast cancer. I hope my fans will join me in supporting this important cause and bid for the dress on eBay.”
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK with 46,000 people newly diagnosed every year. Breast Cancer Care supports people diagnosed with breast cancer and their families through a range of free services. These include one–to-one support and practical services to help with the everyday effects of living with breast cancer.
