NEWPORT traders are clubbing together to hold a fashion show that will raise vital funds for charity.

The show, run by Newport Arcade traders, will raise money for St Anne's Hospice.

Staff from Freestyle and The Pot cafe will be modelling clothes at the show, due to take place in the King's Hotel on Sunday.

Jewellery from Anthony Bingham and By Imogen will also be modelled at the show.

Catherine Dyson of By Imogen said the event will also raise the profile of the Newport Arcade.

Newport custom jewellery maker Clive Mortimer will also be presenting a video about his trade for the event.

Ms Dyson said: "We want to bring together everyone in a positive way because the arcade has had some bad press.

"St Anne's Hospice does a lot of good for the people of Newport.

"They offer extraordinary care. They provide help when people are at their lowest point.

"It gives those who need their services a chance to live."

The Newport Arcade was dealt a blow last month when the BBC Wales Cymru shop became the latest shop to close.

Doors for the fashion show open at 7 for 7.30pm, with tickets selling at £7 each.
