Wear your own piece of Weatherfield

If you'd like to carry off Corrie style or just want to own a piece of Coronation Street history in this, its 50th year on our screens, then you'll have to be quick to snap up the one-off items that Coronation Street has donated from its famous wardrobe to Cancer Research UK’s online shop, http://www.shoptobeatcancer.org.uk/

From Thursday 25th November the online shop, which sells hundreds of brand new items as well as donated clothes, will be selling off a top of Sally Webster’s, a maternity dress worn by Molly Dobbs, one of Steve McDonald’s striped shirts and Becky McDonald’s favourite cropped pink velour jacket pictured above as worn on Coronation Street by actress Katherine Kelly, who plays Becky.

Sally Whittaker, who has fought breast cancer both in real life and as Sally Webster on Coronation Street, said:  ‘’I’m thrilled that someone else will get to wear Sally’s top and own their little bit of Coronation Street. Cancer Research UK carries out extraordinary work to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer so that more people like me can survive. It’s also one of the charities benefiting from Coronation Street’s 50th anniversary appeal so it would be fantastic to see our viewers join in wherever they can, whether they buy one of the Coronation Street items, something else from the online shop or even take a bag of donated clothes to their nearest Cancer Research UK shop.’
