If you're a fan of hearing from inspiration female leaders, this is one for you. Puthey's Coppa Club has launched a new Personal Growth Series, talks from fascinating females who are experts in their field covering important issues, with the aim of inspiring and educating in a relaxed, enjoyable way.
Coming up in the next few weeks, guests can listen to charity founder Kris Hallenga, cooking star Melissa Hemsley and TV presenter Anna Williamson, with each talk including a Coppa Club brunch, a chilled glass of Piper-Heidsieck Champagne and a chance to mingle with the speaker and other attendees in the heart of Putney.
Kris Hallenga, founder of breast cancer awareness CoppaFeel! will be visiting during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. At the age of 22, Hallenga’s life turned upside down when she was told she had incurable cancer, and every day since she has campaigned to spread awareness. She is the founder of the breast cancer education charity, CoppaFeel!, which raises over £2 million a year, is a recipient of a Pride of Britain award and has been awarded an honorary doctorate in Public Administration from Nottingham Trent University. Now living in the coastal climates of Cornwall, Hallenga spends her days breathing in ocean air whilst building awareness of CoppaFeel! Speaking about her incredible campaign work, personal experiences with cancer and her new book ‘Glittering a Turd’, this event promises to be a moving one.
Kris will be speaking at Coppa Between Bridges in Putney at 9:30am on Monday 10th October. Tickets cost £40 per person and can be purchased online here. And while we're on the subject of CoppaFeel!, yours truly is raising money for the charity by walking 100km across the Sahara Desert this November!
