Retail guru Mary Portas was the guest speaker at Chai Cancer Care’s first major ladies’ lunch fundraiser. In her address she told the 140 guests about her career in the fashion industry and, referring to her recent BBC series, she said that she wanted to pass on her expertise to the charity-shop sector. The event, held at the Totteridge home of Karen and Andrew Harris, raised £60,000 for Chai’s services.
