The Ashdown Park Hotel will play host to the fashion frenzy at Gorey fashion show taking place Thursday to raise funds for Malawi

Gorey’s top fashion boutiques will bring their latest looks to the catwalk for a good cause as the Gorey Fashion Show makes its return to the town for the first time since 2019.

This Thursday, October 27, the Ashdown Park Hotel will play host to the fashion frenzy, bringing together the latest styles from local boutiques including Liz Collins, Contra, Jalanda for tots to teens, Pamela Scott, and Sally West. The event will serve as a fundraiser for the Gorey Malawi Health Partnership – a collaborative partnership between the Palms GP Surgery Gorey and St John’s Hospital Mzuzu, Malawi.

While trends can be fleeting, the impact of this fundraiser is not. Established in 2016, the Gorey Malawi Health Partnership aims to improve the management of non-communicable diseases including asthma, high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes which are a growing problem in Malawi. 

The idea for the partnership was sparked when Dr Joe Gallagher crossed paths with Dr Peter Harrington.
