Paula Johnson

Sparkles Boutique
Community Champion - Runner Up

Paula owns Sparkles Boutique in Garston, a business she established with just £500 following a financially crushing divorce. As well as running the business, she regularly organises fundraising events for charities. She encourages women of all shapes and sizes, women who have had cancer or are undergoing treatment, and those who have other illnesses to take part in her charity fashion shows. This empowers them, while raising thousands for Amy & Friends, Clatterbridge Centre and more. She also gives her time, volunteering at domestic abuse charity Centre 56, Damien John Kelly House, a group for men fighting addiction and she is a trustee for South Liverpool Domestic Abuse Service (SLDAS).
