Past Fundraising Events
Ladies Lunch 2007
In early November a party of ladies were welcomed to the award-winning 60 Hope Street Restaurant in Liverpool to celebrate our 4th Red Dress Luncheon.
Michelle Meredith got the proceedings underway by speaking to the audience about her experience of heart disease and how vital it is for women to be aware of their heart health. Michelle had a pacemaker fitted aged just 31. Following Michelle’s heartfelt address guests settled down to a sumptuous lunch preceded by an address from Helga Moran, joint MD of Motivateme. Helga spoke to guests about how to deal with life’s trials and tribulations with a positive attitude.
The afternoon culminated with a prize draw and each guest took away a complimentary Red Dress Campaign pin badge and a beauty gift donated by Drammock International.
A big thank you to all our guests, prize donors and 60 Hope Street Restaurant for their generous support.
International Wear Red Day 2008
Thank you to everyone who supported this year’s International Wear Red Day by going RED on Friday 1st February.
By supporting our Red Dress Campaign you have helped to highlight the fact heart disease is the biggest killer of women in the UK.
