Drapers Digital experts raise over £2,200 for FTCT grants

Last Thursday FTCT was honoured to be the chosen charity at the Drapers Digital Awards. The glittering ceremony took place at The Brewery in London and gave out awards to the retail industry’s digital experts. Over 400 guests attended including big-name brands such as Burberry, Adidas, Karen Millen and Marks & Spencer.

FTCT raised over £2,200 – a fantastic total! Thank you to everyone who donated. The funds will support the families who work in the UK fashion and textile industry who need financial support for their children.

Amazing Volunteers

FTCT and our team of wonderful volunteers - Tayshann, Mariam and Agnes - were on hand to help raise the profile of FTCT. Here they are pictured with Anna and a Drapers guest (photographs by Tom Howard).

Amazing prizes

Our volunteers were also helping to raise the profile of our charity while offering the guests a chance to win a fantastic prize for just a £10 donation: a VIP West End theatre trip for two, including dinner at a top London restaurant. This wonderful gift was sponsored by Advanced Supply Chain. The lucky winner was Anthony from digital platform provider Narvar. Huge congratulations! Also, one person from each table won a bottle of champagne, kindly donated by Marks & Spencer and Tesco.

A huge thank you

We’d like to say a huge thank you to Keely, Ollie and the Drapers team for supporting us at the event, and to everyone who donated on the night.

And, of course, a big thank you to our fabulous volunteers who helped to make the event such a success.
