Who are Books Beyond Words?

Beyond Words is the UK’s national charity for visual literacy and emotional wellbeing. Everyone knows pictures can be more powerful than words. Being able to ‘read’ the images we see is how we know a green light means go, a smile means someone is happy to see us, or that a piece of art is telling us a story. This is the core of visual literacy – the ability to make meaning from the pictures in front of us.

Rotary Club of London - event sponsor

We are thrilled to have the Rotary Club of London as our headline sponsor for our charity fashion show this September. The Rotary Club of London work on impactful causes that change lives, promote integrity, and advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through our fellowship of business, professional, and community leaders. Rotary is a service club and a humanitarian organisation with the moto “Service Above Self”.

History of Future Dreams

Future Dreams was founded in 2008 by mother and daughter, Sylvie Henry and Danielle Leslie. By a cruel twist of fate, they were both diagnosed with breast cancer, Danielle aged just 35 and a mother of three young children. Tragically both women lost their lives to secondary breast cancer within a year of each other in 2009. Their legacy lives on in Future Dreams and the thousands of women the charity supports every year.
