The Light turned pink on Saturday 15th October, in support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, as it hosted its Style Station event.

The Light offered its female shoppers a boudoir experience, as part of Leeds Loves Shopping. Hosted by The Light's lifestyle bloggers The Chatterbox Girls, shoppers were treated to a series of fashion and beauty shows throughout the day.

A whole host of local suppliers and industry experts supported Style Station; through giving away free treatments, free make-overs, professional advice, goody bags and samples. In addition, local cupcake supplier the Bespoke Cupcake Company created a unique Breast Cancer Cupcake for visitors to purchase, in total helping to raise just over £200 for Breast Cancer Awareness.

Footfall at the centre was also up by 25% on last year, with retailers reporting that they had sold out of items exhibited at the show.

Marketing Manager Stephanie James said “As female shoppers make up 60% of our visitors, we felt that it was vital to support this charity. It was also great to be able to offer local suppliers and industry professionals a platform on which to showcase themselves”.
