Bingo clubs across the UK will be turning pink for Bingo for Breakthrough Week, 19th-25th October, to raise vital funds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

The partnership between Breakthrough Breast Cancer and The Bingo Association has already raised an incredible £2.68 million in the last five years and we are hoping to build on this success in its sixth year.
