Leeds RAG Fashion Show's fundraising journey

Why are you fundraising for us and what will you be doing?

The fashion show has decided to focus on mental health this year, as it is an issue which has touched many of our lives. We want to support the ground-breaking work mental health charities do to help support those suffering with their mental health.

That's why on 24 and 25 of February we will be hosting a charity fashion show in Leeds University Union.

Tell us about yourself

Leeds RAG Fashion Show has been running for 14 years, each year focusing on raising money and awareness for personal and global issues.

This year the chosen theme is mental health, with the show title as Eudaimonia, which is loosely translated from Greek, meaning happiness, wellbeing and success.

We are striving to encourage our generation to speak up about their mental health and combat the stigma often associated with doing so.

Why is mental health important to you?

Mental health is important to us as it has affected so many of us in individual ways and we believe that raising money for charities like YoungMinds will further equip them with the necessary resources to reach and help more people in need.
