Vanessa Feltz joined the Samsung Pink Ribbon Tea Party to help raise funds and awareness for breast cancer, and managed to take some time out from chatting with Beverley Knight to talk to t5m about what the cause means to her.

Vanessa explains how she had held a 3 hour radio show on breast cancer earlier that day, with her first caller on the show thanking Vanessa for saving her life - having listened to Vanessa’s show on breast cancer the year before, and having since been diagnosed, treated and recovered from the disease.

Vanessa tells us of the importance of taking charge of cancer - of being aware and beating the disease - and we couldn’t agree me!
