Two women who have fought cancer strutted their stuff on the catwalk as a thank you to the charity which supported them.

Tanya Rosenthal and Joyce Misrahi were among the models at a fashion show at Finchley Synagogue which raised £85,000 for Chai Cancer Care.

Mrs Rosenthal said it was a chance to give back to Chai, which had helped her through breast cancer 14 months ago.

"I saw a counsellor and would often go to Chai for acupuncture, which helped me with my symptoms from my chemotherapy and made me feel relaxed. I also saw a physiotherapist who helped me after my operation and then helped me get my fitness levels back by giving me personal training sessions. I gained confidence, comfort and reassurance that I wasn't alone in feeling how I did."
