STUDENTS at Glasgow University raised thousands for Glasgow Women's Aid at the Charity Fashion Show.

Held at SWG3, the show raised £43,047.54 which will create a post in Crisis Support services, and is estimated to help support around 8000 people.

Angela Devine from Glasgow Women’s Aid said: “We are overwhelmed by the generosity of the GUCFS team and the students at Glasgow University.

Glasgow Times:

"The sum of the donation and the response of those who attended really is a testament to brilliant work of those students involved.”

The GUCFS said: "‘GUCFS would like to thank every person who supported our fundraisers and attended our events, or even just engaged with us on our social media platforms; thank you for helping us raise the funds and awareness we have for Glasgow Women's Aid.

"Our biggest thank you goes to Glasgow Women's Aid.

"On behalf of every member of GUCFS, thank you and see you next year!’

GUCFS is Glasgow’s largest student-run event and continues to grow each year.
