A night out for a good cause

Carriages At Three, the bailgown hire shop situated in The Suit Company on Swindon's Canal Walk is regularly asked to put on fashion shows at local hotels, community or school halls. An evening of excitement, glamour and some ideas for the wardrobe always results.

Over the last two years several local charities have benefited by £7,000. It has cost them very little; all they had to do was sell the tickets.

The team of male and female models, of all ages and all sizes, give their time frwly and spend many hours in rehearsals to perfect their routines and put on a great show.

There are three coming up: • 9 October at the Crosslink Centre, Kingsdown, for the Raychem Netball Club • 15 October at the Dunbar Club, Ocotal Way, for the Koalas playgroup forchildren with special needs • 18 Octoberat the Blunsdon House Hotel for the Cats Protection League.

Tickets for all these events can be purchased from Carriages at Three, tel. 693875 orJuvals, teL 513196.

Fairy Tale Bride, the West Swindon based bridal wear and ball gown hire business, is interested in organising fundraising fashion shows for local community groups.
