Anne Craddock organises Anne’s Big Pink at Harrisons Sports and Social Club, on Wharwell Lane, bringing people together to raise money through raffles and silent auctions.

Local businesses generously donate prizes to help boost the fundraising total.

Anne is a breast cancer survivor herself and held her first pink fundraising day in 2018, the year she was diagnosed and underwent treatment.
