Field of Women LIVE - Liverpool, UK - Sunday 6 July 2008
It has been exciting for us at BCNA to see our very own Field of Women LIVE concept taken up by the people of Liverpool, UK. Thousands stood together on the Liverpool Cricket Ground as a fundraiser for the Linda McCartney Cancer Centre (LMCC). Reality really hit for us a couple of weeks ago when the LMCC people sent us a photo of Stella McCartney, the event’s Patron, wearing a pink lady pin in her lapel.

BCNA worked with the organisers to help make their event a resounding success. Our CEO Lyn Swinburne visited the Centre last year and saw the great work they are doing for women and families with breast cancer. We were also fortunate to have Lyn's dear friend, and fellow breast cancer survivor, Prue Holyman, attended the event to represent BCNA. Prue did media interviews in the run-up and shared her experiences of standing in the Field on the MCG in 2005. Importantly, she told people about BCNA’s work and what we are trying to achieve for women all those miles away.

It is amazing to think that BCNA's own beloved and powerful Field of Women LIVE event can now be experienced by people so far away from us!
