Runway items run up funds at fashion show for Wimborne in Bloom

The second extra fundraising event held this year to mark Wimborne in Blooms 25th anniversary was a fashion show staged by M & Co in their Wimborne Store. Held on 22 September, it raised £419 for Wimborne in Bloom funds.

Some 50 people enjoyed the evening watching the models wearing M&Co’s new autumn and winter collection. The models included staff members of M&Co together with members of Wimborne in Bloom including the grandchildren of the secretary Susie Gatrell.

Store manager Marta Longmire said, “It was fun to do a fashion show for an organisation you believe in and it was a good night, most successful.”

Richard Nunn, chairman of Wimborne in Bloom thanked M&Co for a well organised event, for the models for giving up their evening and for all those who supported the occasion.
