WIN a €200 Penneys voucher while supporting an incredible cause in the process
25th Oct 2023
Even though Breast Cancer Awareness Month has ended, we want to incentivise some continued support with a little competition…
Over the course of October—Breast Cancer Awareness Month—we continue to be floored by the facts and figures. One in nine women in Ireland will develop breast cancer in the course of their lifetime. We have 3,700 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed each year. Only five to ten per cent of breast cancer cases are hereditary.
It is a disease with which many of us have a personal connection to, one which has touched far too many of our lives in some way. In order to help raise awareness, we teamed up with Breast Cancer Ireland, a charity established to raise significant funding to support pioneering research programmes nationally, as well as to promote education and awareness on the importance of good breast health amongst women of all ages.
The gift of time
On a mission to speed up research to affect better treatment options for patients and transform breast cancer from often being a fatal disease into a treatable long-term illness, Breast Cancer Ireland are helping to make a real and tangible difference.

Their fundraising campaign, The Gift of Time, is all about doing exactly that: giving the precious gift of time to those patients sadly impacted directly by breast cancer, and in particular metastatic diagnoses, through the funding of world-class research into new therapies and treatments for the disease.
Every cent of the funds raised through this campaign will be channelled into funding additional laboratory time, affording research teams the time needed to continue in their ground-breaking research into a possible cure for this sometimes fatal disease.
The prize
So, if you need even more of a reason to donate to this incredibly worthy cause and be part of making a difference, we’re giving away one €200 gift voucher for Penneys to one lucky winner.
