Save The Children Fashion Show

Cardiff City Hall was the venue for the annual Save The Children Ladies’ Luncheon in Cardiff this year, where 500 ladies were entertained by Owen Money and Hywel James. Colorfoto was present to record the event and all images are now on-line to purchase at www.colorfoto.co.uk
The guests witnessed a plethora of wonderful auction and raffle prizes, including a Gucci bracelet, a diamond ring, and a framed print and portrait studio voucher from Colorfoto. While guests relaxed over fine food and wine, a consortium of businesses from Cowbridge delighted everyone with a splendid fashion show and for more information on fashion outlets in Cowbridge please visit www.cowbridgefashion.co.uk  Save The Children was Colorfoto’s Charity of The Year in 2009 and our support continues in 2010.

The BBC Club in Llandaff was the venue for a well attended event organised by the committee of the Cardiff branch of Save The Children. Mrs Shan Legge-Bourke, President of Save The Children in Wales addressed 60 guests over coffee and mince pies, praising the work of the charity on both a local and international level. Sales of Xmas cards, paper and other gifts were brisk in an atmosphere of friendly Christmas cheer. Colorfoto was present to record the event and kindly donated a portrait studio voucher, which, in addition to other raffle prizes raised over £500 for the charity.

Save The Children Certificate

In recognition of Colorfoto’s support for Save The Children in 2009, we are very proud to announce that we have been nominated by the charity as ‘Corporate Fundraiser of the Year’. Our support has taken various forms, from monetary donations to publicity material and photography services. In our daily involvement with schools, Colorfoto is constantly reminded of the needs and aspirations of children, and we hope our support of Save The Children will serve in some way to help those who are least able to fend for themselves.

Colorfoto’s support for Save The Children in 2009 culminated in a classical music concert at Holy Cross Church Cowbridge, on Saturday, 12th September. The international performers displayed their outstanding talents to a packed audience, and due to avid local interest, organisers are already planning a similar event for next year. Colorfoto printed complimentary tickets, flyers and programmes for the concert and the final amount raised will be announced shortly.
