“Fun and funky, fabulous fashions”—that’s the promise of the fundraiser for Katie Rose Cottage Hospice at Buderim next month.

Organiser is Caloundra’s Sandra de Jersey, owner of Professionals on the Coast real estate, and she told Noosa Today it would be an afternoon tea party at the Headlands Golf Club.

“As well as raising money for much-needed projects, it is also a great way to showcase the new and preloved wonderful fashion from the hospice’s four op shops at Tewantin, Cooroy, Noosaville and Maroochydore. And, of course, to have a lovely afternoon with friends and have an excuse to dress up.”

Sandra said her fellow co-ordinator was Maxine Robinson, manager of the Maroochydore Op shop.

“Maxine is organising the clothes and the models who are all volunteers.

“We have worked together at three previous charity shows and when I heard she was now with Katie Rose I decided to support the hospice which cares for the terminally ill from all over the Sunshine Coast.”

This will be Sandra’s sixth fashion show fundraiser and her ninth charity event.

“I started hosting pink tea parties at home for all my friends for the Cancer Council and we all dressed up in pink and made pink food.

“Then, when I met volunteers from Beautiful You, I had the idea to organise fashions shows for the public.

“It was not only to raise funds but also for my friends to support their wonderful op shops and to raise community awareness for these amazing organisations.

“Over the years, I have raised funds for the Cancer Council, Beautiful You, Cindy McKenzie Foundation and now Katie Rose

“Cancer charities are very special to me. My mum, Eileen, was diagnosed with cancer when she was only 37 but was fortunate enough to live until 2006 when she was 69. In that time, she also nursed my dad who had motor neuron disease. Dad passed away in 1992.

“I have been lucky to have met many amazing ladies over the years through Nutrimetics, Body Shop, Onyx Boutique, Veducci Clothing, Steps Employment and Remax, where I worked, and they all support my ventures.

“They donate prizes for the raffles and buy tickets to my events. My family and friends interstate also buy tickets every year.”

Sandra said dress for Katie Rose fashion show was pink, pink, pink and hats and fascinators were encouraged.

“There will be plenty of raffle prizes and an auction. A guest speaker who has been through the cancer journey, will also be there. Oh, and bring fun and a fabulous attitude.”

Sunday 13 November, 2pm to 5.30pm. Headland Golf Club, Buderim. Tickets: $40, includes coffee/tea, afternoon tea & fashion show.
