Model Sanctuary Founder Erin O'Connor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Earlier this year, one of Talent Management<\/a>\u2019s favourite British models, the lovely Erin O\u2019Connor, lost the London Fashion Week venue for her Model Sanctuary \u2013 an organisation that provides health guidance and support to young models<\/a> during their career in fashion.<\/p>\n

The diverse beauty and model safety<\/a> campaigner asked for help in securing a new venue during February, but sadly failed and was forced to close the model respite centre for the first time since it was launched in 2007.
\n
\nWell, we\u2019re happy to hear that the British Fashion Council has just announced that is has taken control of the Model Sanctuary, meaning it will reopen with the continued aim of providing support to models during fashion week.<\/p>\n

“After years of begging, borrowing and stealing, opening a vein, arm-twisting and blagging in general, I’m delighted to not have the responsibility of arranging the venue this time,” O’Connor told British Vogue.<\/p>\n

“I will continue to support every project that aims to protect the young and more vulnerable members of our industry and I will always be happy to help where I can.”<\/p>\n

BFC chief executive Caroline Rush added: “The British Fashion Council has had a role in supporting the initiative over the past five years and Erin’s vision and dedication has been an incredible driving force, ensuring the continued success of the Model Sanctuary.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’d like to say a huge thank you to Erin for all her support and we will strive to ensure that this initiative continues to thrive and provide an essential space for models to rest and relax during their hectic schedules over London Fashion Week.”<\/p>\n

The not-for-profit organisation will be given a new name, which is yet to be confirmed, but when we find out we’ll be sure to let you know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
