Dare to wear Pink.....

by Guy
Date: Nov 2008
Last Friday was all about ‘pink’  at Swindale Parks rather than ghosts, ghouls and witches normally associated  with 31st October. The team dug deep into their pockets and their wardrobes to wear pink in support of Breast Cancer Care’s annual ‘Wear it Pink’ day.
 
A cause very close to people’s hearts at Swindale Parks, everyone took part and fun was had by all. Alison who specialises in Creative recruitment won the award for the most eye catching item of pink clothing, wearing what have to be described as the pinkest shoes ever seen and Helen for the most pink items worn (well, it was cold and layering is bang on trend!) Special mention also goes out to Pete, not normally a fan of anything pink (he’s a proper man’s man is our Pete) who dug out the one vaguely pink thing that he had and put it on especially for the occasion.
