Asda workers to be tickled pink by Linda

A BREAST cancer survivor has persuaded male colleagues to wax their legs to raise money for charity.

Linda Anderson, an events coordinator at Asda Chesser, is holding the event tomorrow at the store.

Around seven male employees are hoping to raise more than a thousand pounds for breast cancer research. One is also having his head shaved for the Tickled Pink charity.

Ms Anderson, from Slateford, had already won four awards for her charity work when she was diagnosed with the disease two years ago. But fortunately she responded well to treatment at the Western General Hospital.

Since returning to work, Ms Anderson has thrown herself back into raising money for charity, holding numerous events at the store and raising thousands.
