Sixth form boys donned their wackiest and craziest shirts in
order to raise money for Boot Out Breast Cancer.
Year 13 pupil Ollie Dowie organised the event in order to raise
funds for the charity, which was recently founded by his mum Debbie
Dowie after she beat breast cancer herself. Sixth Form pupils and
staff donated £2.00 each in exchange for wearing their most
colourful and outrageous shirt to school for the day. Boot Out
Breast Cancer specialises in raising money to buy the latest, most
technologically advanced equipment that is required for an early
diagnosis. Such equipment would be used across the North West in
NHS hospitals starting with the Nightingale Centre in
Manchester.
Ollie said: "The atmosphere in the common room has been amazing
today, we are having fun and raising money - it's great to be able
to get not just pupils but teachers involved too."
