Surrey Rocks is collaborating with Celebrity Journalist and TV Producer Angela Sara West on several celebrity events again this year. Not only will we be bringing you TWO Surrey Fashion Week celebrity catwalk shows – in June and November – but also a star-studded fundraising event for Ukraine.
Surrey Rocks readers are cordially invited to an “International Gala Fundraiser” at The White House Ealing, the home of Prince John Zylinski on Saturday 25th February.
The Palace was voted one of the “Top 6 Places to Visit in London” by Time Out (on a list that includes Buckingham Palace & The Shard).
To commemorate the anniversary of the illegal invasion of Ukraine there will be an exciting auction of phenomenal prizes in aid of the British Ukrainian Business Women Association (BUBWA) chosen charity Medway, which assists Ukrainian refugees.
Hospices of Hope are fundraising to build a much-needed hospice in Ukraine. Prince Zylinski will also raise funds in an auction which will go towards his campaign to build a memorial in Central London to commemorate the RAF Polish Pilots who won the Battle of Britain.
Included in the ticket price will be food cooked by the best chefs in London with a free bar of fine wines and soft drinks. The evening will conclude with live music and disco. Dress Code: Black Tie Free Parking Available Tickets priced at £109.50 are available here:
ALFIE’S RECORD-BREAKING UKRAINE FUNDRAISER ADVENTURE
Among the stars of the show is former soldier Alfie McArthur, a pioneering UK film and TV director with whom Angela has teamed up for a string of first-of-their-kind reality TV series, such as exciting celebrity reality TV game show ‘Escape From The Paranormal’ and hard-hitting series ‘The Real Street Diaries’ with famous faces including Channel 4 presenter and upcycling genius Max McMurdo, who is currently starring on Channel 4’s ‘Amazing Spaces’ alongside George Clarke.
Altruistic Alfie, who has also just landed a role in Hollywood movie David, will take to the stage to talk about how he is kindly undertaking a gruelling 630-mile sponsored walk soon after our event in aid of Hospices of Hope and BUBWA’s fundraising efforts for Ukraine.
Alfie aims to smash the record for circumnavigating the stunning South West Coast Path – from Minehead in North Devon to Poole in Dorset – which currently stands at 10 1/2 days, by three whole days!
The former soldier-turned-TV director will push himself to the very limits for these charities he’s passionate about on this arduous trek, during which he’ll meet up with a few famous faces for celebrity challenges along the way.
SILENT AUCTION
The fundraising event will also see the launch of our #squats4ukraine campaign and will be accompanied by a sizzling silent auction of phenomenal prizes, including a signed shirt from President Zelenskyy (the t-shirt he wore at the beginning of the war).
Browse’n’bid to grab yourself a bargain from our wide selection of prizes, which along with celebrity offerings include kind donations from Surrey businesses, from beauty salons & fashion boutiques, to famous musicians & theatres.
All items will be auctioned off in aid of the two charities and you can view them at: www.jumblebee.co.uk/ukraine2023
