The Princesshay team continues to support Land Securities’ national charity, the MS Society, by taking part in ‘Wig-ity-60’ on Friday 26 July. The national charity is marking its 60th anniversary this year with a Challenge60 campaign, which aims to raise £250,000 in 60 days to fund vital research.
Members of the Princesshay team wore bright orange wigs on Friday 26 July in an effort to raise awareness and money for the MS Society’s Challenge60 fundraising event. Security guards, car park attendants, cleaners and centre management staff all took part.
On Wednesday 19 June from 12.00-1.30pm, over 150 hand-made garments designed by Art and Design students from Exeter College will be modeled in a ‘pop up’ fashion show in Princesshay.
Featuring work from 82 Exeter College students, the performance will showcase local design talent modeled, choreographed and compered by dance and drama students from the College. Taking inspiration from artifacts and exhibitions from the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, shoppers can expect to see this theme throughout the collections on display.
