Phillipa Green at BCC, says: “It’s really exciting to be taking Fashion For A Cure to Hamilton, the event has been a huge success in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch and we are anticipating Hamilton will be just as big.”

“Our work continues to grow in importance, especially as breast cancer in New Zealand grows at epidemic proportions. Five years ago 1 in 10 women would be diagnosed, now the rate is 1 in 9.”

“With one of the highest incidence rates in the Western world, there is an urgent need to find a breast cancer cure and stop it in its tracks.”

Tickets for Fashion For A Cure can be purchased for $75, which includes champagne, canapés and a goody bag to take home www.breastcancercure.org.nz.
