I'm urging you to take part in Britain's Biggest Breakfast throughout March 2007 and help raise vital funds for Cancer Research UK.

Britain's Biggest Breakfast is a great excuse to get together for some good food as well as raising funds for an important cause.

You can hold your breakfast party any time, any place, anywhere during March for family, friends or colleagues. All you have to do is ask your guests to make a donation to help Cancer Research UK.

As well as raising vital funds for research into cancer, Britain's Biggest Breakfast is encouraging awareness of how eating a healthy breakfast, as part of a balanced diet including plenty of fruit and vegetables, can help reduce your risk of cancer.

Experts believe around a quarter of all cancers are linked to diet, obesity and alcohol, so it's important to make sure you're getting your five daily portions of fruit and veg - and breakfast is a fantastic place to start!

To join Britain's Biggest Breakfast visit www.cancerresearchuk.org/breakfast or call the Hotline on 08701 60 20 40.
