Kym Marsh is visiting Rochdale later this month. The popular actress and singer will be appearing in the Wheatsheaf Shopping Centre on Saturday 24 July as part of the run up to this summers Feel Good Festival.

At around 1pm she will be officially launching Rochdale Library’s new DVD loan service, before making a guest appearance at a ‘Feel Good Fashion Show’ being staged in the Shopping Centre. She’ll also be meeting fans and signing autographs during the afternoon.

Kym originally shot to fame in the pop group ‘Hear’Say’ and had two chart topping singles and a number one album. She also had two top ten singles as a solo artist and earlier this year reached the semi finals of the popular reality show ‘Popstar to Operastar’, but now is perhaps best known for playing Michelle Connor in ITV1’s ‘Coronation Street.’

A multi-award winner, Kym Marsh’s accolades include ‘Best TV Soap Personality’, ‘Favourite Actress’ and ‘Best Dressed Soap Star’. Last year she was named ‘Celebrity Mum Of The Year’ by Bounty.

“Shoppers will be able to get into the swing of summer with plenty of glitz and glamour at the ‘Feel Good Fashion Show’, with models showing off those sizzling summer must have outfits” said organiser Martin Ballard, Manager of the Wheatsheaf Shopping Centre.

Models from a variety of town centre fashion retailers will be striking a pose on the catwalk. The full line up will be announced next week.

“I’m delighted that Kym will be joining us at the show, where we’ll all be showcasing exactly what we stock, our unique brands and just what is available in town” added Kelly Turner-Mitchell, from 25 Ten Boutique.
