ABra Cadabra put on a fashion show and craft competition to raise awareness for breast cancer working in tandem with charity .
Attendees were asked to design a bra for the chance to win one of three prizes, including a two-week holiday. At the end of the event, the bras were modelled and judged by the event organisers with all proceeds raised at the event聽given to the charity.
One of the ABra Cadabra team members, Eliana Benevento, said: 鈥淭here's so much that goes into the planning of even the smallest event. As the event planner, you have to anticipate everything that could happen - from how people should queue to calculating how likely it would be for a tent to fall down: and how to prevent that from happening.
鈥淚t can be incredibly stressful at times, but it is such a rewarding experience to see an event through from start to finish.
鈥淲e were shocked and excited to be shortlisted for the award! It's really neat to be recognized for something you put a lot of work into. For me personally, I am thrilled that I was able to make an impact while only living in the UK for six months."
NOEA is the UK鈥檚 leading outdoor events trade association and the winners will be announced at a ceremony in November.
Senior Lecturer in Events Management, Michael O鈥橰egan, who worked closely with the students as they planned, prepared and executed their events, was thrilled to have had one of the groups shortlisted for the award this year: 鈥淲e are absolutely delighted that ABra Cadabra 鈥� Benefitting CoppaFeel! UK has been shortlisted as NOEA is the UK鈥檚 leading outdoor events trade association which recognises the best events in the country.
