Supporting Breast Cancer Haven
For several years Little Greene has pledged its support for Breast Cancer Haven, donating proceeds from sales of every tin of paint and roll of wallpaper sold throughout Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. This year, we're pledging Breast Cancer Haven a minimum donation of £20,000 to mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Breast Cancer Haven is a charity that supports women through their breast cancer treatment. It provides tailored packages of emotional, physical and practical support that help women through this difficult time. Every £1000 raised provides a 10-week course of treatment.
With centres in London, Hereford, Yorkshire, Wessex and West Midlands, Breast Cancer Haven is the only national breast cancer charity that provides one-to-one support to improve the quality of life of anyone affected by breast cancer. Working alongside the NHS, Breast Cancer Haven offers a free, integrated breast cancer support service and a telephone service for patients unable to travel to one of their centres. Trained therapists, counsellors and advisers are on hand to listen to individual patients and provide them with bespoke practical, emotional and physical support.
Little Greene’s Creative Director Ruth Mottershead confirms:
“We are delighted that Little Greene is supporting Breast Cancer Haven again in 2020. As a company, we are committed to raising enough funding to help Breast Cancer Haven provide counselling and therapies to those that need support. That’s why we are pledging a minimum donation of £20,000 to the charity: we feel passionately about supporting its invaluable work, especially at such a tough time both economically and emotionally.”
Matt Jameson - Fundraising Manager Yorkshire at Breast Cancer Haven adds:
“The support we receive from Little Greene is invaluable, not only providing emergency funds during the Covid 19 pandemic but also committing to organising its own fundraising events going forward. Without the incredible relationship we have with the company we wouldn’t be able to be there for people living with breast cancer right now. We’ve now made our services virtual so you can still get the vital breast cancer support you need, even if you can’t leave your house. This collaboration really does show that working together in a productive and positive way makes such a big difference to people’s lives: we can’t thank Little Greene enough!”
