Girls become pink rockers

The wristband craze appears to be fading but a new one is about to be launched - and it could save lives.

Cancer Research UK's All Women Together campaign is encouraging people to wear pink fingerbands to raise awareness of breast cancer.

Nancy Dell'Olio, partner of England football manager Sven-Goran Eriksson is backing the campaign, as are pop stars Girls Aloud and actresses Meera Syal and Fay Ripley.

Pink sweatshirts and T-shirts are also available,while sponsored walks and fundraising parties will be held in breast cancer awareness month in October.
