Tina Scott, of Worthing Scope, said: “There was great interest from the public for the event and it was very successful.

“The event was organised by Worthing Scope in partnership with Taking Shape and we raised £278 from a 
raffle, which will go towards Scope.

“We had fashion shows and local businesses doing demonstrations and promoting themselves.

“Cheryl did an inspirational talk on being a larger woman and how you can still dress fashionably.”
