Fabulous Fashion<br />

Fundraiser<br />

WHAT?<br />

Fashion Fusion is a stylish<br />

evening of fabulous fashion to<br />

raise funds for the extremely<br />

worthwhile St Nicholas Hospice Care.<br />

WHEN?<br />

Friday 5th May<br />

Drinks reception: 7pm | Catwalk show: 7:30pm<br />

WHERE?<br />

The Apex, Bury St Edmunds<br />

The evening will showcase the best fashions from ten of Bury St<br />

Edmunds’ high street and independent retailers. Abby Mayes, hospice<br />

corporate fundraiser, said, “Fashion Fusion is always a wonderful<br />

evening for the style-conscious, with the best of Bury displayed on the<br />

catwalk. “I’d like to thank The Apex team for holding Fashion Fusion in<br />

aid of the hospice. In previous years the event has raised thousands for<br />

us, so I hope the <strong>2017</strong> event is another show-stopper.”<br />

As well as being able to enjoy the show guests will also be able to peruse<br />

a selection of fashion and beauty related stalls in The Apex’s upstairs<br />

lounge before the show and during its intermission. Tickets, which cost<br />

£18, include a welcome cocktail courtesy of the English Spirit Distillery,<br />

interval refreshments will be supplied by Sodexo Prestige. There will also<br />

be a raffle, with all proceeds going to the hospice.<br />
