 christopher bigginsChristopher Biggins and 15 other men threw on their high heels for Cancer Research UK in tribute to Jade Goody and other women who’s lives have been affected by the disease. The men looked hot to trot as they got in touch with their feminine sides as they donned skyscraper heels to take part in the one-of-a-kind ‘In Her Shoes’ event in Regents Park, London.

Christopher Biggins said -

So many people have been touched by cancer and I’m no exception – I’ve just lost two of my closest friends to cancer and my father is currently undergoing treatment for bowel cancer. I’m no stranger to squeezing into a pair of high heels but it’s nice to do it this time to show support for every woman who is helping raise vital funds to help beat cancer by taking part in this year’s Race for Life. Most of the other men were slightly apprehensive at the prospect of putting on a pair of women’s shoes, but if they’re willing to do this in support of their loved ones for Cancer Research UK, then I hope it persuades women everywhere to sign up for their local Race for Life event today!

This group of men proved that if they can walk around a running track in a pair of four inch heels, women everywhere can walk, jog or run 5k at their local event. Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life is the UK’s largest women-only fundraising event, so why not join the other 680,000 women this year and help raise over £60 million to fund the charity’s life saving work that has saved millions of lives in the UK and across the world.
