Fashion and Fizz at Homme House

The Childrens' Society event "Fashion and Fizz" at Homme House raised over £1500 for this worthwhile cause. Many of the Ledbury ladies fashion shops joined in to make an enjoyable afternoon tea and fashion show for over 100 guests.

Thanks to our models ( better picture is coming) Judith Houlbrook, and Sue and Sarah Hitchings.

30th Party Pics!!!

30th Party Pics!!!


Quote from Nicola Wood of St Michaels Hospice
 
Connections of Ledbury have been involved with St Michael's Hospice for over 9 years.  I was absolutely delighted when I received a call from Melanie Lane asking if she could support us by donating the clothing that her customers no longer required.  Of course my answer was a definite yes please.....Melanie's support over this time has probably generated an income of around £32,000.  This has made a tremendous difference to St Michael's and I would like to personally thank her and her wonderful customers for their tremendous support over the past and future years'

I really do thank you Melanie for your support and wish you another 30 years of successful trading

Kindest regards

Nicola Wood
Head of Retail
St Michael's Hospice

Connections is 30!!!!

Connections Dress Agency celebrates 30 years of trading on the 29th March with a party at the shop in Homend Walk for invited guests and colleagues to view the new Spring outfits which arrive daily.  Connections sells beautiful nearly new clothes on behalf of clients with unsold items being donated to St Michaels Hospice, providing this important local charity with thousands of pounds worth of clothes.

The business was started by Jean Toy, and Melanie Lane, the current owner said "I am delighted with the support of local customers and also clients near and far that have made Connections the success that it is today. Connections has been called the ultimate fashion recycler and we look forward to the next 30 years"

Over the years Connections has sold some amazing outfits, designer dresses from  Vivienne Westwood and Chanel, and favourites from Armani, Brora and Oska to name but a few. Connections provides stunning outfits for weddings, graduations, Cheltenham races and even a tea party at Buckingham Palace.

Melanie said " Connections is a fun place to shop, with our ever changing stock you  never know what you are going to find!". 

During the celebration week Melanie will be taking a collection and making a donation to St Michaels Hospice.
