Cancer Research UK and MySpace Impact UK are proud to announce the Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirt Design Competition. This is an opportunity for you to make your voice heard in the fight against breast cancer.

Finalists will be selected by an expert judging panel that includes Babycakes clothing founder and MySpace icon Paul Griffiths and a creative team from global designer clothing label Amplified. It will then fall to you, the public, to vote for an ultimate winner.

The winning t-shirt will be sold next year in Cancer Research UK’s online store and charity shops. *

So get your creative juices flowing and take up the challenge!

* Please read the terms and conditions below for full details

Your challenge is to develop a striking t-shirt design that will inspire thousands to become breast cancer aware.

How you go about achieving this is up to you. Your design could for example:

• inspire others to support the fight against breast cancer
• encourage people to raise funds for breast cancer research
• communicate what breast cancer awareness means to you
• signify the hope that research gives and the importance of being breast aware

The choice is yours. We want you to inspire us!
