Lady In Red singer Chris De Burgh is riding high on the music charts with a charity song recorded with a couple of teenagers who lost their mother to ovarian cancer.

Lonely Sky is currently available on iTunes, with all profits going to St Anne’s Hospice, where the mother of Ben and James Hazelby was cared for before she died last year. The boys were awarded the chance to record the song with the iconic singer during a Noel Edmonds Christmas TV special earlier this month, and the tune has already reached number 11 on the charts.

“We’re absolutely over the moon – there’s no words to describe it,” said the boys’ father, Paul Hazelby. “I had a feeling it was going to do well but none of us were prepared for this. It’s just fantastic. The boys are being recognized and they are loving it. Life has gone completely mad – we are doing lots of interviews and every time we hear the song being played it still shocks us.”

Against Breast Cancer served up a fitting close to London Fashion Week – blending designer fashion with rock n’ roll and a very English tea at the home of Bee Gee Robin Gibb at the charity’s ‘Splash of Pink’ Fashion Show & Couture Tea.

Staged at their Oxfordshire home on Saturday 25th September, the Bee Gee and his wife – a Patron of Against Breast Cancer – opened their doors to 400 guests. The designer Fashion Show & Couture Tea was topped off with a live performance by Robin and his band supported by Natasha Hamilton and Elan Lee.

In aid of Against Breast Cancer and marking the start of breast cancer awareness month in October, the Splash of Pink Fashion Show will help the charity reach its annual goal of £1m to fund its valuable research into breast cancer. A new blood test is being developed by the charity’s researchers to detect the secondary spread of breast cancer and they are working towards finding a vaccine.
