Events co-ordinator Yvette Jackson said: "Along with the usual ways of raising money for charity, with colleagues sitting in baths of pink milkshake, we will also be selling tickled pink badges and Celebrities backing the nationwide campaign include Naomi Campbell, Kate Thornton and Samantha Robson.

Yvette added: "Asda has raised £1.4 million for this charity and thanks to the generous people of Rossendale we raised £600 in one day last year."
