A mother is on mission to make high school proms more affordable after her daughter missed two events due to Covid.
Julie Sarahs launched a pop-up branch, called Stroud Community Costumes, which allows students to borrow dresses, suits, shoes and bags for a non-compulsory donation.
She was inspired to take action after seeing the cost of some dresses rise to more than £200.
"If I can take away a little bit of the stress around this time when people are revising for exams, perhaps struggling financially or wanting to be a little bit sustainable with fashion then this is perfect for them," Ms Sarahs said.
