I'm just doing the Pink Fund accounts and with GIFTAID the Pink Fund has raised £30,082.83, so I reckon by the end of Oct we could well be at £35,000 - OMG YOU LOT ARE AMAZING!! Thank you every single one of you for the support you have given this fund.

Don't be proud of me darlings.... it aint my money.... all I give is time and that costs me nothing!! Without you lot, this would never have got over £3k and without Gaynor it wouldn't be happening at all.... Effing Amazin as Ethel would have said!! :O)

I still have a fair bit to bank as well. My boss told me today that it looks as if my company will donate but told me to hang fire for the moment as a final amount has not been agreed upon. I'm holding my breath and keeping fingers cross at the moment. It was the one highlight in what turned out to be a fairly frustrating day at work.

well done you and gaynor for being such inspiring ladys, and i believe there are a few others on here who are also inspiring, im glad it also gives you so much pleasure to do so much good, you keep up the good work motivating everyone, and take care of yourself too, a bit of pampering for you i think is well deserved,

What a fantastic thread Diana, to think that something so wonderful has come out of a small idea. £30k and climbing, Gaynor would be so proud....but i can hear her saying 'only 30...surely you could get a bit more!!!' lol You might not be a saint Diana, but you ARE a star, you have motivated us all and helped to get the Pink Fund where it is. So take a compliment for once!!! Yvette

You're no saint darling but you are fantastic! You've got so many people working so hard to raise loads of money so here's to you, Gaynor and The Pink Fund. See you tonight and we'll nudge that total even higher - champagne is in the fridge! Daisy

I can say this cos I know its true, Gaynor would be proud, Jack said yesterday that she found it quite emotional banking the money, Which is true cos I felt the same, Gaynor should be here to see what she helped do, and to be able to say herself how proud she really is. Well done everyone, you are all amazing!
