Meet your wear it pink team

Kinie 

Kinie manages wear it pink and is the leader of the pack. Kinie has worked in fundraising events for seven years so you’re in very good hands. She has trekked on the Great Wall of China and ran the London Marathon in 2021, so she has plenty of energy to lead this campaign. 

What are you mostly excited about for this year's wear it pink?

I’m excited for the big day and hearing about all the amazing things our supporters are getting up to for their wear it pink events, as well as getting involved in our own event with the team (we’ve yet to plan ours!) 

Most embarrassing moment?

I’m not very good at ice skating - I’m one of those people who holds on to the barriers and goes round clutching it. Last time I went, a group of kids came up and gave me a children’s skating aid penguin and said it looked like I needed it more than them - stranded on the rink with a penguin was very embarrassing.

Imagine your perfect wear it pink day - what would be your chosen activity?

I think it would be a pink baking competition. I'd love to see how creative people could get with baking lots of different pink things.

Ainan 

Ainan is in charge of ensuring your fabulous wear it pink events go as smoothly as possible. She previously worked in fundraising and marketing and gained experience in a lot of different areas. Ainan brings her data knowledge and enthusiasm and will certainly get stuck in to keep us all on track. 

Imagine your perfect wear it pink day - what would be your chosen activity?

I'm a big karaoke fan so I'd organise a sing-a-thon with my friends and family, maybe doing songs with pink in the title. 

Most embarrassing moment?

A recent embarrassing moment is I accidentally joined a park run. Last weekend I went for a jog at my local park and thought there were a lot of runners about. I filed in and happily jogged along until, to my surprise, I reached a finish line with people clapping. I awkwardly turned off the path because I’d only been running for five minutes and hadn’t earned it.

What's the best pink item you own?

I have a small plant with pink leaves. The pot has a face so now the plant has grown it looks like the hair has got bigger and more unruly which I love.

Imagine your perfect wear it pink day - what activity would you choose?

I'd do a big puppy and yoga party with all things pink,  including the yoga outfits as well as the dog outfits, collars and leads. I absolutely adore puppies and love the relaxing element of yoga – so why not combine the 2 and raise some money for Breast Cancer Now.

What are you mostly excited about for this year’s wear it pink?

I'm most excited for hearing and seeing what everyone ends up doing at their events. I can’t wait to see all the amazing pink outfits, hairstyles, decorations, and more.

What’s the best pink item you own?

I have the most INSANE pair of pink cowboy boots that I got on sale in Amsterdam. They're almost too beautiful to be worn outside but I'll definitely be bringing them out for wear it pink day this year.
