My gorgeous mum, Chris Newport was a very glamorous woman. She loved her clothes and jewellery, always had her hair done and make up on and was often stopped by strangers and complimented on how lovely she looked.

We received the devastating news April 2016 that our mum had a terminal brain tumour. We lost her 18 August 2017.

I organised my first SWISH in March 2017 while she was going through her treatment after I'd helped her have a sort out of her wardrobes. She was delighted that her things were able to be part of the fundraising activity. Her clothes and jewellery are proudly worn by members of my community and I'm sure she'd be happy that they are continuing to be enjoyed.

I've since gone on to organise annual events in her memory, totalling over £14k. I'd love to raise £2k at this event and top our best total.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
