Bosom Buddies
The International Wine & Spirit Competition are pleased to support Bosom Buddies, a charity established in 2001 and was originally set up as an informal support group for those undergoing treatment for Breast cancer in the local area of Guildford. The ladies then went on to raise all important funds for research into this illness. Monies are raised for St Luke's Cancer Centre, Guildford, and the head of the Breast Cancer unit, Mr Mark Kissin and his team as well as Breast Cancer Care and other research groups.
