The Tower
of London, Buckingham Palace, Nelson's Column and BT Tower are among London
landmarks bathed in pink for breast cancer awareness. Even Tokyo Tower, Tokyo
Sky Tree and the Empire State Building glowed with a rosy hue for the event
which lasts through the month of October.
Campaigners
want to raise awareness of the disease that still kills 12,000 women in the UK
every year. In Portugal the rate is of 4 women a day. The main point is that
throughout October, everyone can do something to help: from wearing it, buying
it, turning it or painting it pink, through to encouraging friends and family
to be more aware of the signs and symptoms - every action will help move us
closer to curing the disease.
