Cancer charity gets busy with The Bees to create a buzz with businesses

A West Yorkshire charity has teamed up with Bradford and Bingley Rugby Club to raise funds.

Cancer Support Bradford and Airedale is launching a major new sponsorship with The Bees.

The independent charity, which provides individual support to people coping with cancer, is asking local companies to get behind their new scheme to ensure they can continue to offer their service.

Hayley Collis, Cancer Support Bradford and Airedale's fundraiser, said: "By sponsoring The Bees' shirts at our special Christmas charity rugby match, on Saturday December 11, companies will not only benefit from fabulous exposure at the event itself but will have the satisfaction of knowing that their marketing money is being put to very good use,

"We really are unique in the region in that we provide personal one-to-one face-to-face cancer support – no other charity in the area is able to do this.

"A special commemorative shirt has been designed specifically for this match which will feature all the sponsors' logos and our own new redesigned charity logo.

"Each sponsor will be given a shirt to keep – once it's been laundered of course."

The charity was previously referred to as Bradford Cancer Support but has recently revised its logo to incorporate mention of the wider Airedale district which it also supports.

It hopes that the new name will reassure people beyond the immediate Bradford area there is support available for them too.
