Charity fashion show attracts famous faces

CELEBRITIES and professional models will be strutting their stuff at a charity fashion show in Cirencester.

Hair stylist and former model Russell Nurding has organised the October 5 event in aid of the Cotswold Care Hospice in Minchinhampton.

Russell, who owns the Cutting Room in Swan Yard, Cirencester said famous faces attending include Emma Sams, who played Fallon in Dynasty, Sean Gleeson, who played Conor Flaherty in Eastenders, and Charlotte Randle, a childhood friend of Russell's who has appeared in Eastenders and Holby City.

Actress Sophie Ward, who starred in A Village Affair, is currently shooting a film in Scotland and has agreed to fly down that day especially for the fashion show.

The event is being compered by former England cricketer Dave Syd Lawrence, who now presents programmes for HTV and radio. Fashion stores from across the county have contributed items for the show.

Two hundred and sixty tickets are available for each of the two shows, which start at 3pm and 7pm.

Russell added: "There is also going be a lot of stalls selling items before and after each show.

"And anybody that buys a ticket will receive a free bag of hair and beauty products to the value of their ticket."

Tickets are priced between £10 and £5 and are available from the Cutting Room at 2 Swan Yard, Cirencester.

The event is being held at the Sundial Theatre at Cirencester College.
