Rebecca Grant at Pulse Light Clinic

For the past few weeks Rebecca has been visiting Pulse Light Clinic London for various body and face treatments in preparation for filming. 

"I would never have considered laser hair removal or microdermabrasion, and would have kept on using shavers and relying on chemically infused face creams till a friend of mine took me to Pulse Light Clinic. Bye bye to expense on shaving and itchy exfoliators. Having sensitive skin which reacts to certain creams I found the microdermabrasion such a natural solution, so easy and fast! I was even more impressed with the laser hair removal. Again, I was thinking how much money I have spent on waxing and threading my eyebrows and in a couple of treatments the thin hairs had disappeared! Thanks also to the fantastic service from Jenny Milton and Pulse Light Clinic's founder Sheila Maclean I will continue with my treatments which, as an actress, is keeping me well groomed for the camera!"

The Pulse Light Clinic in London is staffed exclusively by experienced medical professionals. They use a Doctor consultant and only qualified nurses who are highly skilled in Photo Rejuvenation IPL techniques.

Rebecca's Exhibtion 'An Actor's Art' raises funds for Philippine School Transport Program

Actress and performing artist Rebecca Grant's excellent art work, depicting TV, West-end and theatrical scenes in which she herself was involved, is was exhibited at the Philippine Embassy London last month.

On Monday 11^th of July, a fundraising activity by way of a raffle, was held at the exhibition for the purpose of raising money to sponsor the daily fares to and fro school of 20 slum children in the Philippines. Without sponsorship for this project initiated by the Padua Charitable Fund (reg.charity, England and Wales), these impoverished children eventually end up not going to school.

The evening's event was graced by the ladies of Vivien of Holloway - dressed in 1940s 1950s vintage reproduction clothing, while exciting entertainment was provided by the Nottingham Philippine Youth Association cultural dance group, and hiphoppers Jemima and Sophie Padua from Street Vibes Dance School.

Raffle prizes included a commissioned painting by Rebecca, a £50-voucher from Vivien of Holloway and an exquisite double-stranded cultured pearl necklace from the islands of the Philippines.

A total of £335 was raised and already remitted to the Philippines. On Monday 18th July, this school fare project commenced, and within a few days of Rebecca's exhibition fundraising activity, 20 children from the slums of Metro Manila are now happily going to school.

One of the mothers burst into tears upon receiving funds from ‘An Actor’s Art’ exhibition as not only does this give a child education but adds hope and aspiration for a brighter future for the rest of the family.

Donations for this project are ongoing. If interested, please contact Nelson P. Balmores at donate@paduacharitablefund.org
