Breast Cancer Now's 'The Show': A fashion show like no other

Breast Cancer Now, UK’s leading charity dedicated to eradicating breast cancer, is all set to host its annual fashion show that is more than just a showcase of clothing.

This year, the annual fashion show is back on 20 April celebrating the strength and courage of 24 incredible models taking to the catwalk for the first time.


Called "The Show," it is an event that celebrates the resilience and courage of people living with or beyond breast cancer.

The Show is a testament to the charity's commitment to supporting individuals impacted by breast cancer. The models who will walk the runway are all individuals who have been affected by the disease.

They come from all walks of life, different ages and ethnicities, and have all had different experiences with breast cancer.

What sets The Show apart from other fashion shows is that it is not just about the clothes, but rather the individuals wearing them.

The event provides a platform for the models to reflect on their experiences and celebrate who they have become after their battle with breast cancer.

Through fashion, these models celebrate their journeys and reflect on their experiences with breast cancer.

After Rebekah Roy's incredible work in The Show 2022, she has been welcomed back as the stylist for this year's event.

With over fifteen years of experience in the industry, Rebekah is an award-winning stylist and one of the world's leading style experts with a focus on sustainable fashion. As the owner and director of Bare Fashion, London's first vegan fashion show, Rebekah has established herself as a prominent figure in the fashion world.

The clothes worn by the models for The Show are specially selected to reflect their personalities and styles, and they are encouraged to choose outfits that make them feel confident and empowered.

The clothes are a tool for the models to express themselves and showcase their individuality.

The Show is not just a celebration of the models, but it is also a reminder of the impact breast cancer has on individuals and their loved ones.

The event is a symbol of hope and resilience, a celebration of life after cancer.

Breast Cancer Now understands that fashion alone cannot make a difference in the fight against breast cancer.

However, events like The Show help to raise awareness of the disease and the impact it has on individuals and their loved ones.

Breast cancer is a devastating disease that affects millions of people every year. The emotional, physical, and financial toll of breast cancer can be overwhelming, and many people struggle to cope with the impact it has on their lives.

That is why the work done by Breast Cancer Now is so important. They provide a range of services and support to people affected by breast cancer, from practical advice and emotional support to financial assistance and research funding.

This event provides a platform to showcase the important work of Breast Cancer Now and the need for continued funding and research.

Several brands and individuals, including Estée Lauder and ghd, generously support The Show, thus making the event possible. Estée Lauder provides makeup for the models, while ghd styles their hair.

The closures, first proposed in late 2023, could lead to the loss of up to 2,700 jobs at the company’s main UK site in Scunthorpe, northern England, according to sources familiar with the matter.

Just Stop Oil ends direct action campaign after major policy success

The environmental activist group Just Stop Oil has announced an end to its disruptive direct action protests, declaring a significant victory in its campaign to halt new oil and gas developments. In a statement released by the organisation, the group confirmed it had successfully influenced government policy to abandon new fossil fuel exploration, marking a major turning point in the movement’s goals.

“Just Stop Oil's initial demand to end new oil and gas is now government policy, making us one of the most successful civil resistance campaigns in recent history,” the group’s statement read. It went on to claim responsibility for having kept over 4.4 billion barrels of oil in the ground, while legal victories in the courts have ruled new oil and gas licences unlawful.
