Event Details

It’s October which means it’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we’re delighted to be partnering with the lovely Natalie from The Oasis Candle Co. to host a very special event.

Having recently been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, Natalie is putting on a candle-making workshop for British Mums at Jones The Grocer, Al Manara on Thursday 10^th October from 8.30am – 11.30am. The cost of the workshop is only AED 245 and this includes breakfast and a lovely candle to take home with you.

Not only that, but British Mums & The Oasis Candle Co will be donating AED 150 on behalf of every attendee to Al Jalila Foundation, who are working effortlessly to support those undergoing treatment and their families. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women with 1 in 8 women being diagnosed in their lifetime. Studies show that the average age of diagnosis is 10 years younger in the UAE than elsewhere in the world.

Choose your scent and craft a beautiful 220g candle from the amazing collection. Please note: Your newly crafted candles will need a few hours to properly set. You can either collect them from Natalie or opt for doorstep delivery.

Jones The Grocer are also putting on a lovely breakfast from their new menu, with a choice of the dishes below, alongside a tea or coffee:
