Jenni Eastcott, 20, will next Sunday (July 5) take part in the Pink Ladies Tractor Road Run through Norfolk to raise money for Cancer Research UK’s breast cancer appeal in memory of family friend Jane Ingham.

“This is a charity very close to my heart as many pople are affected by this diseased, however more people are fighting and beating it,” Miss Eastcott said. “This can only be achieved through research which needs funding.”

In order to boost her fundraising, Miss Eastcott took a tractor to Saffron Walden town centre on June 13 where she raised £356.

For the run, P Tuckwells Ltd has provided a tractor for Miss Eastcott to drive. She also thanked RD Duke and Sons, NFU Mutual Insurance, Saks Hairdressers, Evergreen, Janet Riley, Craft Days, The Party Box, Millway Stationery, Homebase, Reve Flock, Organic Orchards and Michael Williams Engineering.
