“I hit menopause and felt like a plug had been pulled out. Then to be faced with Lucy as a size 8 when I had just become a size 12. I thought what have I done!!.. But OMG, she is a bloody magician! She has just given me more than I ever could have dreamt. She has a gift beyond the knowledge of putting together incredible outfits. She honesty is the first person to have heard me & made me feel VISIBLE in a long time. THANK YOU LUCY…”
In 2015 one of my twin boys ben was diagnosed with a polycystic astrocytoma brain tumour. Following brain surgery Ben had twelve rounds of chemotherapy. During this time Ben was granted a wish from STARLIGHT foundation. He and his twin brother Jack got to surf with World Chamipion Mike Fanning. He was in his 7th round of Chemotherapy and I cannot share what this wish did for Ben, me, and the whole family. Ben is now a fit strong healthy 24-year-old amazing man. We got our silver lining.
It is now a great pleasure I am on the advisory board of the STARLIGHT FOUNDATION. Part proceeds of all sales through styling and my designs goes to STARLIGHT. You can wear your style with pride knowing you have contributed to a great cause. I will till my last breath be enfettered to three remarkable doctors: Dr Steven Santorious (Ben's neurosurgeon), Dr Arthur Elise-Flint (Ben's registrar neurosurgeon and now friend), Dr Maria Kirby (Ben's chemo doctor), as well as Mike Fanning (Ben’s now friend, they keep in touch and surf together) and THE STARLIGHT FOUNDATION.
