Silsden store supports local NHS Charity at fashion show fundraiser

Monday, 13 May 2024 14:34

Jo Mount, owner of Boutique Ole in Silsden

Silsden based Boutique Ole is taking to the runway at Airedale Hospital & Community Charity’s fashion fundraiser, The Big TLC at Skipton Town Hall on Wednesday 26 June 2024.

Laura Hepworth, Community Fundraiser at AHCC said: “After the roaring success of last years event, we knew we had to bring it back to Skipton Town Hall in 2024. We’re excited to showcase another local business this year and Jo from Boutique Ole can’t wait for her models to strut their stuff!”

As well as the main fashion show, there will be up to 16 stalls showing off small businesses from the local community and across Yorkshire including Young Market Trader of the Year 2023, Herd and Hive.

Tickets start from £5 and include entry to the event and one free raffle ticket. VIP tickets are £10 and also include a complimentary goody bag and front row seats.

This year, funds raised from the event will be going towards the Charity’s Emergency Department Appeal. The focus of the appeal is to give areas within the Emergency Department a little TLC after nearly 10 years of use.

Work will include the refurbishment of the paediatric waiting area and the bereavement facilities as well as purchasing new sensory equipment to improve the environment.

Tickets to the event can be bought directly from Boutique Ole located on Kirkgate, Silsden or online The Big TLC Tickets.

Funds raised for Airedale Hospital and Community Charity go towards the improvement of staff and patient wellbeing at Airedale NHS Foundation Trust and the surrounding community, providing items and services that are above and beyond NHS provision.
