Emily Blunt supports the cause
Emily Blunt, star of Devil Wears Prada, who spent time visiting young patients at the hospital said: "I love fashion and Shop Wear Care is an exciting opportunity for people to buy gorgeous items from some of the world’s most exclusive designers. I met some very brave and inspiring children at a recent visit and have seen first-hand how the money raised at Shop Wear Care will help to make a difference to the lives of seriously ill children from across the UK."
