Training School Children


                                 

  Bryn Hafren Comprehensive School - Fairtrade Fashion Show

I was asked to host a fashion show and train models from Bryn Hafren School. After meeting the polite young pupils from the school I gladly agreed to take part. The fairtrade fashion show which took place on  Thursday 6th March 2014 opened it's doors to the pupil's friends & family. The well put together show arranged by Miss Bashir took place in the main hall. Guests were welcomed with fairtrade branded cupcakes at the entrance. The evening begun with a welcome speech from the PDW and then followed by the Councillor Curtis who heads the fairtrade Committee. Special guest included the Mayor of Barry Town who also took part in drawing the raffle. Raffle prizes include very kind donations from Waitroses and Co- op hampers.

Cardiff Blues Question of Sport



                           Cardiff Blues Question of Sport



Firstly a huge well done to Cardiff Blues Rugby Team on a great victory against France in the Six Nations. This was an amazing time to watch our home team win. So as you can imagine I was more ecstatic to hear that I was to combine my two favourite things:

1. Charity - Velindre Cancer Centre
2. Meetings the Welsh Rugby Team

Velindre Cancer Centre hosted : Question of Sport special featuring Cardiff players PAST – Martyun Williams, Tom Shanklin & Rhys Williams, versus PRESENT – Sam Warburton, Rhys Patchell & Gethin Jenkins

Velindre Cancer Centre is the largest non – surgical cancer Hospital in Wales providing Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy and other specialised anti – cancer treatments for over half the people of Wales.They have been providing support and care to cancer patients in South Wales for over 50 years. On average every year Velindre Cancer Centre provides care, treatment and support for over 130,000 out patients and day cases.

It was so nice to see so many famous Rugby Sporting Stars at the event. Hearing that so many had given up there evening to help support such a great cause and also shaving there heads in support of team mate and friend Matthew Rees. Cardiff Blues Matthew Rees has just been given all-clear from testicular cancer which is great to see that Velindre Cancer Centre works.

Myself and Christina - Miss Fashion Vs Beauty 2013 helped out with the Raffles and slight auction to raise funds for the centre.
