Fashion fundraising event to return

Hundreds of members of the local community will come together next month for one of Geelong’s favourite charity fashion shows.

Barwon Health Foundation’s CatWalk4Cancer event will be held on August 17 at the Geelong Arts Centre.

All funds will directly support oncology care, treatment and cancer services at Barwon Health.

The evening of festivities will be hosted by television presenter and radio host Jacqui Felgate and led by local fashion brand Ceres Life.

Ms Felgate said she looked forward to combining fashion with fundraising.

“I’m excited to see Geelong’s style, fashion and creative community support Ceres Life Catwalk4Cancer 2024, and all for such a worthy cause.”

Barwon Health Foundation event manager Danni Flowers said Ms Felgate would be a wonderful addition to what is traditionally an impactful event.

“The whole Barwon Health Foundation team are absolutely thrilled to have Jacqui as MC for this year’s Catwalk4Cancer.

“It’s always such a fun event that showcases some of the best fashion from across the Greater Geelong region while raising funds for such an important local cause.

“We are sure tickets will disappear quickly, so we definitely recommend getting in early before they sell out.”

An array of styles will be showcased from Pearls and Roses, Ceres Life, RAEF The Label and REIGNER and many more.

Tickets are $99 and are inclusive of the live fashion experience, delicious canapés, two included drinks and a gift bag.

Since its inception in 2010, the event has raised more than $450,000 for those touched by cancer in the Geelong region.
