Votes for adaptive clothing brand in high-profile competition

Hi all,
I've posted here a few times before about women's clothing and the design features the disabled community wish that fashion brands would take into account. Since then, I've developed a ten-item collection of clothing, including skirts with hidden functionality to carry a catheter bag subtly and securely and two-piece jumpsuits and dresses for wheelchair users.
We are creating samples at the moment with a manufacturer, but have entered the company into Virgin's Voom pitching competition, for a chance to win cash and mentoring. With this, we can create the collection in a greater range of sizes, making sure it really is inclusive. But we need your help - we literally need hundreds of votes to make it into the semi-finals. Please vote for us and feel free to share with friends and family: http://https//voom.virginmediabusiness.co.uk/pitches/kintsugi-clothing-fashion-for-every-body
It's time the fashion industry became more inclusive.
