Asda have launched their new Tickled Pink Campaign to help raise breast cancer awareness – with a little help from a few familiar faces. World-renowned photographer Rankin has captured portraits of stars including Amanda Holden, Donna Air, Frankie Bridge and Guy Ritchie's model wife Jacqui Ritchie, who are all pictured wearing the Tickled Pink T-shirt. The black long-sleeved design costs just £8 from George and Asda, and is adorned with a vibrant pink ribbon – the international symbol of breast cancer awareness.

So far, over £55 million has been raised since the Tickled Pink campaign was first launched. Other celebrities that feature include Rankin himself, Vivienne Westwood's granddaughter and model Cora Corre, and Vogue cover star Cecelia Chancellor.

Donna Air is proud to be part of the campaign 

Donna Air, meanwhile, applauded the campaign for making it easy for everyone to show their support. She said: "I am immensely proud to be part of Asda’s Tickled Pink campaign which has helped the two charities to provide support and vital research. I love that Tickled Pink makes it easy for people to get involved and show their support; you can even just pick up something from the range on your weekly shop."

The campaign has been raising money for Breast Cancer Care and Breast Cancer for 21 years, with an aim  to improve care, support and information for anyone affected by the disease. It is also working to help fund vital research to prevent women from dying from the illness in the future.
