Did you know that African Caribbean people are twice as likely to have a stroke as people of European origin? The show will be introduced by Michelle White, whose heart problems began at just 26 but she is a survivor and a supporter of the BHF.
JJ Rocks Consultancy will also be hosting an impeccable fashion show and pop-up boutique, with an eclectic mix of designers from established labels such as Ade Bakare to emerging labels such as Binghi’s Boutique.
