Sheelagh Barron reels in Marks and Spencer's
Sheelagh Barron, who has been campaigning at Marks and Spencer's for decent post-mastectomy bras (i.e. soft next to the skin, wearable even), has also canvassed them about TOYPD. And here we have it: second big corporation to answer a letter...and it's positive! Stuart, btw, is Stuart Rose - big honcho.

Amazing!
They should 'do a Kate Moss' with you...you know, you (='celebrity') 'design' a range of mastectomy-friendly bras for Marks and Spencer.
It would be fabulous if they sold your book!

I always did love M & S even in the days when they were in the dumps. They are mensches! Terrific news. And good also about your cinema outing and the money raised from that!
