Lleyton Coombes, who will be 13 on his next birthday, was born with a rare life-limiting neurological illness called Niemann Pick Type C which prevents and even reverses brain development. He requires 24-hour care, cannot communicate normally and cannot walk very far without the assistance of a wheelchair.
For the past ten years, the Pride in Lleyton Appeal has been raising money to help Lleyton and others who have the same illness and, as part of this ongoing campaign, is holding a Charity Fashion Show at Swinton Park Golf Club on Wednesday 13th March.
On show will be a range of brand-new clothing from high street stores, all with up to 75% off RRP (Recommended Retail Price), with styles to suit all ages and sizes ranging from 8 to 22. All items will be available to purchase on the night with a debit card.
Alongside the show will be stalls, including handbags, purses and scarves by Pink Butterfly Boutique, Wilmslow; body shop products by Karen Cooney; ladies fashion jewellery and accessories by Suzanne at Shanghai Sparkles; Mehndi by Rabz Mehndi; sweets by Luscious Treats; chocolate and sweet bouquets by Candy Bouquets; and wax melts by Scented 4 You.
There will also be a raffle on the night*, plus a delicatessen of food available for just a fiver on top of the £5 admission price, with a menu ranging from chicken fajita wrap to vegetable curry.
All in all, a top night for a top cause with tickets on sale now.
