Release Summary: H.Samuel launches new campaign to raise money
for Breakthrough Breast Cancer during Breast Cancer Awareness
Month
Press
Release Body: H.Samuel, the UK’s favourite
High Street Jeweller, is launching a range of gifts and jewellery
during Breast Cancer Awareness Month to raise
funds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer, the UK’s
leading breast cancer charity.
The
selection of hand picked gifts with an element of pink includes
watches, collectibles and jewellery
and each product will carry a 10% donation to Breakthrough. In
addition, all proceeds from H.Samuel in-store collection boxes,
pink ribbon pins and phone charms will go to Breakthrough
Breast Cancer, to help the charity continue its vital
breast cancer research, campaigning and education work.
Breast
cancer is the number one health concern for women in the UK. Over
1000 women die of breast cancer in the UK every month and 1 in
9 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in
their lifetime. But the good news is that more women than ever
in the UK are surviving breast cancer thanks to better awareness,
better screening and better treatments and Breast Cancer Awareness
Month represents a key time of year, when the focus on breast
cancer is at its highest.
To
help Breakthrough achieve its vision of a future free from the
fear of breast cancer, it needs to raise at least £25million
each year to fund its vital research, campaigning and education
work, including the work that takes place at its dedicated breast
cancer research centre in London and at the three new research
units it’s opening in Edinburgh, London and Manchester.
Jeff
Jones, H Samuel Brand Manager said: "H Samuel
jewellery is about real people and their stories and Breakthrough
is a natural charity for the brand to support. We hope our eye-catching
items will help raise awareness of breast cancer as well as raise
vital funds for this worthy cause that affects the lives of so
many people in the UK"
The
Pink Range at H.Samuel is a diverse
collection, including the Swarovski
crystal With You Kris Bear, Pink
Casio Digital Watch, Citizen Stone-Set Bracelet Watch and
a 9ct White Gold Cubic Zirconia Ring.
