*SUSSEX UNI STUDENT TURNS ITALY'S ATTENTION TOWARDS EMPOWERMENT*  When Francesca Jones studied Communications at Sussex University came to national press attention in her native Italy when she started the Rome branch of Dress for Success, which empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional clothing and the development tools to help them thrive in work and in life. Fast forward 2 years and the journey has only just begun. Having transformed the lives of 250 women she makes it her mission to promote empowerment and confidence through the arts, writing, dance and so much more… “I always wanted to do something about making the world a better place and give back in some way.” she said. Her grandfather taught her that 'Il sole dentro' the sun shines on the inside - so to look within for the anwers and for your true inner light. In honour of her grandfather's experiences during the war and to illustrate the journey of life she writes a book documenting his and her experiences for inspiration and transformation. https://rome.dressforsuccess.org/ https://www.facebook.com/francesjones.86/posts/10101747223692116 https://www.facebook.com/rome.dressforsuccess.org
