The Andalucía Performing Arts Society (TAPAS) raised 500 euros during its fashion show held in Alhaurín el Grande last weekend. More than 80 outfits were showcased by 11 models and then sold to raise funds for local charities.

This year's beneficiaries were the cancer support group, Un Sí Por La Vida; and 4 Paws Adoptions, a Malaga-based association that finds homes for abandoned animals.

The guests also enjoyed a special performance by the amateur theatrical group's choir.

Part of the event was televised and will be shown on a main stream UK channel early next year.

TAPAS chair Betty Ross said: "It was incredibly hard work to put this together, but immensely rewarding. This shows once again that TAPAS is not just a choir, but a resourceful family who pull off the most amazing events for charity and have great fun in the process."
