Staff and customers at a Leamington jewellery store are showing their support for the fight against cancer by running in Race for Life.
Fabulous, based in the Royal Priors, Leamington, has formed a 40-strong team to run five kilometres at Warwick Racecourse on July 16, raising money for Cancer Research UK.
Team member Amy Wilson said: "Fabulous has always supported breast cancer research and most of the team has done the Race for Life before. It's a great way to get a big group together, raise lots of money and have fun."
The team aims to raise £1,000 of sponsorship which will be donated to Cancer Research UK.
They have raised a total of £205 so far, and are encouraging customers to take part.
In addition to enjoying a fun evening with friends and doing something worthwhile, Fabulous is offering a glass of pink bubbly at the finish line and a free t-shirt to anyone who joins the team.
This event is also being supported by designer brand Nomination which is providing special bracelets free of charge to everyone who runs as a member of the Fabulous team.
Go to www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/fabulous to sponsor the runners, or call 0845 4509334 to join the team.
q Fabulous will hold another event soon, Fabulous Rocks, a black tie dinner with jewellery where all profits will be donated to Cancer Research UK. Tickets are available in store. Josh Jones
