The Professional Women's Network (PWN) is proud to announce a unique and empowering event during London Fashion Week. On Friday, 13th September, at Future Dreams House, PWN will host a special fashion show to empower young women with Down Syndrome and raise funds for Books Beyond Words, a charity dedicated to helping young adults and children understand the world through pictures and books. Books Beyond Words was founded on a touching story of a child visited every Thursday by their only parent, their father. When the father passed away, no one informed the child, fearing they would not understand due to their disability. This led to the child self-harming every Thursday. The breakthrough came when the loss was communicated through images and a book, highlighting the power of visual storytelling and giving birth to Books Beyond Words
