Happy Friday all! This week has been a great week for us. I have been working very closely with The Fcancer Project who had their inauguration event on Saturday 28th April.

Abandoned by her father after her mother dies, this film is the story of Gabrielle Chanel, before she became the infamous Chanel.

Ryan Gosling plays the lead male- a mechanic and stunt driver in the day and a get-away driver in the night. Without telling you the whole plot, the film sees Ryan using…
