ROCK THE RUNWAY RETURNS TO HIGH ROCKS
After the roaring success of Rock the Runway, held in October 2013, local event organiser Katy Beatton and personal stylist Lynne Meek of Styling Matters have, once again, joined forces to organise a charity lunch, followed by a fashion show in support of local charity, The Pickering Cancer Drop In Centre, which supports anyone whose life has been touched by cancer.
A truly local event, which is sponsored by Purity Bridge, a private aesthetic clinic based in Tunbridge Wells, Rock the Runway takes place on Wednesday, 4th
March at High Rocks in Tunbridge Wells. Some of the town’s best-loved retailers including Bod & Ted, Ilse Jacobsen, Kitch, Pure, and Minimaya will be showcasing their spring/summer collections on the day, while jewellery and accessories will be featured on the catwalk and will also be available for sale on the many stalls. • Tickets, priced £65 each, can be purchased through
event.bookitbee. com/2311/rock-the-runway/. For more information email lynne@stylingmatters.

The inspirational new music centre and cafe hub based in Sevenoaks opened its doors last month to young adults 18+ interested in all aspects of music. From jamming to learning an instrument or developing musical skills, the project gives any music lover the opportunity to come and meet up with like-minded musos. The aim is to inspire and support young people in the community by giving them the opportunity to participate in workshops or one-to-one tuition by experienced musicians free of charge.

The scheme was launched in 2009 to encourage more people to make an extra effort to improve the environment, and the winners were rewarded for a range of environmental efforts including litter picking, supporting responsible dog ownership, fl ood warden support, innovative anti-littering and dog fouling poster designs, community
