Raising Money For Christies Hospital
Next year, Melissa, the Creative Director of Suzi Wong Creations, is preparing to run the Manchester Marathon—not just as a personal challenge but as a way to give back to a cause that means a lot to her: Christies Hospital. Christies is one of the largest cancer treatment centers in Europe and a leader in cancer research, treatment, and care. Through its innovative treatments, groundbreaking research, and compassionate support for patients and their families, Christies has touched the lives of countless individuals.

To further support this incredible institution, Suzi Wong Creations is launching a special edition “Pink Sock”. Known for its bespoke, handcrafted boxing shorts and athletic wear, Suzi Wong is now adding a charitable item to its collection, blending style with purpose. The Pink Sock is not only a symbol of support for Melissa’s marathon efforts but also a way for customers to contribute directly to Christies’ ongoing work.
All proceeds from the sale of the Pink Sock will go toward Christies Hospital, helping fund cutting-edge cancer research, support services, and specialized treatments. With every purchase, you’ll be making a real difference in the lives of those battling cancer and ensuring that Christies can continue offering world-class care.
