Team members from Stagecoach West came together to support Breast Cancer Awareness Month and raised £856 for Breast Cancer Now’s Wear It Pink Day.
Employees of the firm, which serves Swindon, swapped their usual colours for shades of pink and got involved in a range of fundraising activities, helping to raise vital funds for breast cancer research and support.
Colleagues at the company’s Oxford, Cheltenham, Swindon and Stroud depots went the extra mile by organising cake sales, with an impressive selection of homemade treats helping to boost donations and bring colleagues together for a fantastic cause.
Thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of employees across the business, Stagecoach West raised a total of £856, which will go towards supporting the work of Breast Cancer Now.
Martin Gibbon, Managing Director of Stagecoach West, said: "We're incredibly proud of everyone across Stagecoach West who got involved in Wear It Pink Day.
"From dressing in pink to baking cakes and making donations, our teams have shown fantastic generosity and community spirit.
"A special thank you goes to our colleagues in Oxford, Cheltenham, Swindon and Stroud for organising some brilliant cake sales, and to everyone who donated.
"Raising £856 for such an important cause is a wonderful achievement, and we're delighted to support the vital work of Breast Cancer Now."
Wear It Pink is one of the UK's biggest fundraising events, taking place each October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Organised by Breast Cancer Now, the campaign encourages people across the country to wear pink, host fundraising activities and come together to support those affected by breast cancer.
Over the past 20 years, Wear It Pink supporters have raised more than £45m, helping to fund life-saving research and life-changing support.
Breast Cancer Now has an ambitious vision that by 2050, everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will live and live well.
Stagecoach West's fundraising efforts reflect the company's commitment to supporting important charitable causes and bringing its people together to make a positive difference.
