Pink Ladies Tractor Run sees record-breaking numbers

A record number of women took part in the 20th anniversary of a fundraising event for breast cancer.

The Pink Ladies Tractor Road Run saw 195 women and their decorated farm vehicles drive through south Norfolk and north Suffolk on Sunday.

Over the years, the event has raised £896,000 for Cancer Research UK's breast cancer appeal.

This year more than £94,000 has already been donated online, bringing the Pink Ladies ever closer to their dream of raising more than £1m for breast cancer research.

It was a record-breaking year for the Pink Ladies with nearly 200 drivers taking part

Lynne Ainge, 61, from Norwich, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and took part in her 10th run.

"It is the one event in my year that everything else takes a back seat for," she said.

"I want to raise funds, awareness and also give hope to others that may be affected."

The full amount raised from the 2023 event, which featured nearly 200 tractors, will be announced by the Pink Ladies in September.
