Suit up for a good cause

Grooms and wedding guests can step out in style in a bespoke suit while supporting Marie Curie with this charitable initiative

Proceeds from the Marie Curie blue slim-fit package, available online and through more than 250 Cameron Ross Formal Hire stockists across the UK, will go towards the country's leading end of life charity. 

The blue suit is available in adult and child sizes and comes complete with a lemon tie and handkerchief – the charity’s corporate colours. The package includes a slim-fit jacket, waistcoat and trousers; a shirt; and cufflinks. 

Prices start at £110 and each hire will donate £5 to Marie Curie, which provides care and support to terminally ill people and their families across the UK, either at home or in one its nine hospices. 

Georgina Bushell, partnerships manager at Marie Curie, says: “For the past two years, weddings and celebrations have been halted, or held with fewer guests due to restrictions. Now that we are learning to live with Covid, many people will be getting married this year, or next, and looking forward to tying the knot.

“We are so grateful to be receiving a portion of the suit hire. Not only is it a beautiful choice, but for guests who are hiring it, they’re helping Marie Curie to continue being there for terminally ill people and their loved ones throughout the country."

Michael Fallon, business development manager at ACS Clothing, who own the Cameron Ross Formal Hire brand, adds: “Marie Curie is an incredible charity that supports so many families whilst in their time of need and I am delighted that we can support them in our own way.  

"Over the years, we’ve raised money for Marie Curie through various fundraising activities and offering our customers a way to donate to a worthy cause by wearing one of our most popular suits is the next logical step in our partnership."
