One Day To Go Until the Be Well Collective Fundraiser!
Tomorrow, Tuesday 2nd July sees the first Be Well Collective Fundraiser take place in partnership with The Rake magazine at The Corinthia in London. As a not for profit organisation the Be Well Collective has so far been self funded by our founder Sarah Ann Macklin and made possible by the generous donations of our partners and those within the industry that recognise the important of having an organisation that prioritises the health and wellbeing of models within the fashion industry.
With a fundraising target of £70,000, the money raised will enable the BWC to continue to support UK models via monthly workshops centred around nutrition, mental health, sleep and exercise. Providing online content to reach a wider audience outside of London as well as hosting large fringe events to support those within the fashion industry during the stressful time that is fashion week.

Amy Winehouse Portrait, by Phil Griffin
This incredibly touching piece has been donated by Phil Griffin, friend of the star Amy Winehouse, from his Unseen Icons collection
“Amy Winehouse, changed everything.
There was a time before her and then there was her. A new volatile landscape of potential.
Amy encouraged me to be fearless with our work, honest with my ideas and firm with what we needed to do, to I get it done.
She called me “her Phil....” .
That young fiery spirit in the petit North London body understood completely the need for honesty - no matter the cost - and like the lioness she was, Amy trusted me to make our shared space a safe place to speak truth.
I miss her every day. ”
