More than 250 guests mingled amongst fresh flowers, blossom trees and the newest scents from the Owen Drew’s Secret Garden Collection.

The scent of 'Wild Suckle and Gardenia' - amongst others - filled the air as Wirral's multi-award-winning candle brand Owen Drew celebrated the release of its latest fragrance collection at a lavish secret-garden themed lunch at Thornton Hall Hotel and Spa.

Guests enjoyed live entertainment and a fashion show by Knutsford designer Phillip Armstrong - whilst helping to raise more than £6,000 for Radio City's Cash for Kids and Incubabies a charity that raises funds for The Wirral Women's and Children's Neonatal Unit in Arrowe Park Hospital.

Co-founder Drew Cockton told Cheshire Life: 'We are thrilled that the event was such a huge success and even happier that we were able to raise such a brilliant amount of money for these worthy causes.'
