Lou Teasdale makes major plea as she calls for 'poshos' to help less fortunate at Christmas

Celebrity hair stylist and businesswoman Lou Teasdale has pleaded for people to help those in desperate need of assistance over the Christmas period

Lou Teasdale called on her followers to help those less fortunate.

The hair stylist and businesswoman took to social media on Tuesday and Wednesday to reveal she was once again helping the charity Choose Love, which she has never shied away from raising awareness for. This week, Hull-born Lou headed to their store on Regent Street, London to get stuck in with the action as she was one of several who helped to raise vital funds.

Choose Love assist with humanitarian aid and transport, often finding local organisations that are helping those in need of assistance before distributing funds, material aid or volunteers to those who need it the most. These include search and rescue missions, emergency medical care, vital supplies as well as helping those who require mental health assistance and education.

Taking to Instagram in view of her 5.8 million followers on the photo sharing app, Lou shared a string of snaps from her day, including one of her and pal Nick Grimshaw with his fiancé Mesh Henry, who were also happy to help the organisation.

Captioning her upload, the Bleach London co-founder penned: "I spent the afternoon volunteering the tills with my friends @chooselove at their department store at 245 regent street @regentstreetw1 Pop in to pick up some lovely gifts and support displaced people this winter. Or shop online at www.choose.love."

In another upload, the mum-of-one sharing a list of "items" available at the store, including a Bundle of Love, costing £150, Emergency Response Bundle priced at £145, One of Everything (everything on offer), costing £750, options to donate to a new baby bundle, mental health care and waterproof tents and emergency housing.

Captioning an another upload, Lou tagged a friend and joked: "Come on get some of your posho mates to put their hands in their pockets for Christmas." It seems as though Lou's pleas paid off as one of her pals opted to donate £750 in order to purchase "One of Everything."

She gushed: "Thank you for buying the shop I love you." The media personality went on to tell fans that everything bought in store and online on Wednesday would be "doubled" to help those in need over the Christmas period. Meanwhile, one of Lou's pals also sponsored her for £500 during her day in the store.

"Y'all beautiful and doing great work. Thank you," gushed one fan in the comments section. A second added: "Love choose love." Her day comes after her footballer boyfriend Andy Carroll praised Lou for always putting others before herself. Reflecting on his romance and Lou's mission to help others, the FC Girondins de Bordeaux striker told The Times: "I've seen a different world since I've been with Lou.

"This Christmas, like she does every Christmas, she will go with her daughter to look after the isolated elderly. She's a volunteer for Choose Love and a campaigner for LGBTQ+. She says to me, 'Why would you hate anyone?' That's someone I need in my life."
