In a bid to support women with cancer, the Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust has partnered with fashion brand Scamp & Dude as part of the ‘Super Scarves’ campaign.

The campaign promises to donate one ‘Super Scarf’ for every single scarf purchased to hospital partners across the UK, which includes all three Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust hospital sites.

The Trust has gratefully accepted over 360 scarves, which will be distributed to patients starting chemotherapy, supporting Scamp & Dude’s mission to reach 60,000 women nationally.

Keely Clawson, Lead Cancer Nurse at Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust, said: “We’re really pleased to be working alongside Scamp & Dude as part of this powerful campaign to support people with cancer.

“Going through cancer treatment can be an extremely difficult time for patients, so we know how much this gesture will be appreciated, and hopefully offer a sense of empowerment and joy.”

Available in an array of vibrant colours and patterns, Super Scarves can be purchased directly from the Scamp & Dude website.
