Suzanne told LSiOnline: "Prior to the event I was quite overwhelmed to receive so many messages of support . . . doing this had clearly made people think, and some had even decided to do their own fund-raising, which is great. I also met one of the Macmillan ladies, Stephanie, who had been through cancer twice, and the way she faced it and embraced it was quite inspirational - I was in awe. I had bought a wig before-hand, but once I'd spoken to her and listened to what she'd been through, I thought no - I won't wear it, I'm doing this to raise awareness. It was such a positive experience. I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who helped for all the support and all the donations I've received . . . people gave what they had, and we were able to collect about £300 at the show itself."
Two volunteers from Toni & Guy, huge supporters of Macmillan, Claire Williams and Marcel Bartlett from the company's Canary Wharf Salon, kindly donated their time to do the cut. The two Macmillan volunteers who attended the event were Stephanie Limond and Louisette Middleton.
