Anais Gallagher says, “It’s the first time I have joined Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign for Breast Cancer Care and Breast Cancer Now and I am so proud to be part of it.

I’m encouraging everyone to buy Tickled Pink products to help everyone affected by breast cancer, the most common cancer in the UK.”
Amanda Holden says, “It’s so exciting to be part of the Tickled Pink campaign this year, and amazing to know that this will encourage people to get involved in supporting the campaign this October. I am officially ‘Proud to be Pink’ and thrilled to support such an incredible cause.”

Donna Air says, “I am immensely proud to be part of Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign which has helped the two charities to provide support and vital research. I love that Tickled Pink makes it easy for people to get involved and show their support; you can even just pick up something from the range on your weekly shop.”

Samia al Qadhi, Chief Executive of Breast Cancer Care and Baroness Delyth Morgan, Chief Executive of Breast Cancer Now said, “We would like to thank Asda’s colleagues, customers and suppliers for all they have done to support those affected by breast cancer.
“We’re so proud of everything Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign has achieved over the past 21 years. Funds raised for Tickled Pink are vital to the work of both charities; to provide specialist support and care for people living with, through and beyond breast cancer, and to invest in world-class research to stop women dying of this devastating disease once and for all.
“It’s wonderful to see this incredible line-up of celebrities supporting Tickled Pink this year and we are thrilled to have their support in helping us to raise awareness and funds for the work of both charities.”
The campaign has been raising money for Breast Cancer Care and Breast Cancer Now for 21 years, with the funds raised helping to support people diagnosed with breast cancer and helping to progress life-saving breast cancer research. Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign has helped Breast Cancer Care and Breast Cancer Now achieve improved care, support and information for anyone affected by the disease, as well as funding vital research to help stop women dying of breast cancer in the future.
