Pink Fire Pointer @Mahiki for #TheMirelaFund

@Mahiki for #TheMirelaFund


Sunday apparently, is the “new” Friday, Natalie Pinkham declared as she warmly welcomed guests to Mahiki for a special fundraiser particular close to her heart. 



When Natalie Pinkham was a student she volunteered in an orphanage in Romania. Recently, with the help of Channel 5, she went back to see what had happened to the children she looked after and particularly to Mirela, a girl that impressed and moved her. Natalie was so shocked by what she discovered that she vowed that she would do anything to support her.  Along with Alex Daly’s help (the nurse she met in Romania) she is building a home for Mirela and her Friends. With this admirable goal Natalie organised this event to raise money and awareness for The Mirela FundChampagne for Life officially sponsored this charity event and we, all the Champagne for Life ladies, are very proud to have been able to contribute to this great cause.

This fundraiser was not like any other I have been to, it seems Natalie was determined to have a capital F-U-N at the start, and created ‘A night of cocktails’, her warm nature and personal approach meant that all the guests had a smile on their faces and with OK! magazine and Channel 5 covering this event it was important to show it off.  The destination for these cocktails? Mahiki - a club that I particularly love! I couldn’t miss the opportunity to join in and help this fantastic cause. The minute I entered the fabulous Mahiki a glass of  Moët & Chandon was offered to me by the gorgeous staff, making me very happy.

Then I realized that Mahiki was packed with like-minded people that wanted to have fun and donate and I became even happier.

Amongst the crowd were TV presenters such as Lizzie Cundy (who alongside Natalie hosted the Auction and Raffle, their natural banter making it one of the most entertaining I have ever seen!), Di Stewart, Georgie Thompson and lots of famous faces from the world of Formula 1 including the very tall Jake Humphrey. There were inspiring performers such as Adam Garcia (who won a designers dress from PIA MICHI at the raffle – that was very funny!), England cricket players and society somebodies. The event was very successful and Natalie was proud to announce that it managed to raise £20,000 towards The Mirela Fund.

I had a fabulous time at this charity event. The crowd was also having lots of fun as we were enjoying music by the brilliant ESCALA band – 4 beautiful and amazing talented musicians! And of course DJ Lora was fantastic as always! Girl Power, or Lady Power, as I prefer!

I wish all fundraisers were such fun and filled with warm, lovely people, as the evening drew to an end I had my last sip of bubbly and was handed my goodie bag, what a treat! Filled with Redken products and a copy of OK! (yes, my guilty pleasure too!)

Fantastic Redken Products from the Goodie Bag...
