Slimmers' fashion show raises £300 for CLOWNS charity

MORE than £300 was raised for West Somerset charity CLOWNS from a fashion show held in the Hobby Horse, Minehead.
It was organised by the Slimming World girls at Carhampton with consultant Amanda, and Tracy-Anne Fraser, of The Frock Exchange, Minehead.
The evening was a great success with nearly 70 tickets sold, and it raised a total of £305.73.
The models were all from the Carhampton Slimming World group with sizes from 8 to 24 and aged 19 years to older than 70 years, all wearing new clothes supplied by The Frock Exchange.
The cheque was presented to CLOWNS at the Carhampton Slimming World group which is held on Wednesday evenings at 7 pm.
Ms Fraser said: “It was a great chance to show people that we do not just stock dress agency clothes but also brand new.
“The evening wear and wedding outfits were particularly popular with some of the models buying their outfits as they liked them so much.”
The event was supported by local businesses which supplied items for a draw, including Butlins, Minehead, which gave a one-year family pass worth £99.
