Screwfix also sold ‘Get it Done’ t-shirts, the follow up to the popular ‘t-shirts as well as scratch cards across its network of branches, to raise further funds and awareness of male cancers.
John Mewett, marketing director for Screwfix, said: “. We know that the most common form of cancer in men is prostate cancer and Screwfix’s large male customer base allows us to really reach out and make a difference. Congratulations to our staff and customers, who got involved and raised such a large sum of money. It will really make a huge difference to the great work that Everyman does.”
