Sefton4Good is asking local Sefton residents to Paint it Pink from 21-25 October to help raise money for local good causes.

Paint it Pink is the annual drive from Sefton4Good to encourage local residents and businesses to donate their time and resources for charities and good causes in the borough.

Sefton4Good are asking local businesses to fundraise on their behalf during this week, through activities such as raffles, bake sales, or wearing pink to work!

All money raised from the events will go to local charitable organisations within Sefton. Over the last two years, Sefton4Good has distributed more than £25,000 to Sefton-based causes, including Bootle Action Group, Girlguiding Sefton, and the Orrell Trust.

Rachael West, who is a member of the Sefton4Good team, says: “Paint it Pink week is a great chance for local people and businesses to find out more about Sefton4Good and the work we do in the borough.

“It is a fantastic cause to raise money for, as we only distribute our funding to local causes, ensuring your money stays in Sefton.”

The latest round of grant funding is due to be launched on 24^th October.
