Christmas at The Design Centre Chelsea Harbour by Andrew Wright

HRH Duchess of Cornwall visits the Design Centre at Chelsea Harbour

This evening I attended a wonderful Christmas charity event at the Design Centre, hosted by Claire German Managing Director of the Design Centre. It was officially opened by HRH The Duchess of Cornwall who started the event by turning on the Christmas lights in aid of the magnificent charity Shelter. Nina Campbell, Joanna Wood, Pickett Leather, JVB Furniture, Anna Casa Interiors, Porta Romana and Pierre Frey each designed a Christmas tree which were auctioned to raise funds for the charity. With champagne and Canapés flowing the atmosphere was very festive and raised awareness for Shelter.
