Since we began Attollo, raising awareness and money to help fight Breast Cancer has always been at the top of our agenda. Boobs are our business and we want to do everything we can to support and help those women who are facing possibly the worst days of their lives while they experience the horrendous disease.
We are incredibly passionate about doing our bit to help save women in the future having to battle this horrible disease.
Last night, at Cosmopolitan's FashFest Lingerie Show, we were very lucky to meet the founder of Coppafeel, Kris Hallegna. Her story is absolutely inspirational and reminded us truly what why supporting charities such as these are so important.
What we didn't know when we met her was that her breast cancer, which was discovered five years ago when she was 23, is terminal. Her message last night was, "Love your boobs" and "make your bra save your life".

So, to kick start our support for this wonderful cause we are running/walking/crawling the very feeble distance of 5KM. The fun side is that it's just one rather long, mighty, muddy obstacle course.
Please help us raise as much as we can. Our fundraising page can be found here.
Our goal is to raise £150 - this money could pay for:
15 glass slides to examine 500 tumour samples
or
One Cancer Chat nurse to learn more about the latest advances in treatment.
or
It'll contribute halfway towards a thermostat controlled water bath for accurate results.
Once Kris told us her cancer was terminal, her inspiring response was, "I'm not planning on going anywhere. I've still got a lot of living to do".
On saturday, we will be running for and on behalf of the ladies out there like Kris. So please support us so we can team together, beat this horrible disease and save the wonderful, inspirational people in our lives.
