On Friday 15th May, the kitchen design team at Bradburys Exeter held a charity event in their showroom, in memory of the late owner, Andy Bradbury.

The Bradburys team organised a fantastic fashion show to raise money for Andy’s preferred charities ‘Force’ Cancer Charity and ‘Sands’ Neonatal and Stillbirth Charity, and raised a staggering amount - in excess of £5,400!

Guests included family, friends, work colleagues and customers past and present who enjoyed live music with a glass of fizz and canapés put together by renowned chef and friend of Andy’s - Sylvain Peltier - as they watched the superb catwalk display of the latest fashion trends from Polka of Sidmouth.

The event also included an auction for a selection of incredible items, including:  Miele Fashion Master,  NEFF Dishwasher, Sonos Play One, Miele washing machine.

Bradburys and ALNO would like to personally thank all those who supported the event, including the generous guests, sponsors and those who contributed their time and skills on the night.  If you would like to make a donation towards the charities, please visit the Justgiving page here.

Andy was immensely proud of his Bradburys Exeter kitchen showroom and had exciting plans for events that would use the space to unite the community, as well as display the beautiful ALNO kitchens. 

The showroom has previously been used to host various cookery demonstrations and provided the arena for the Devon Life Home Cook Awards in 2014, which will be hosted at Bradburys Exeter again this year.
