Dentsu London Sleepout for Centrepoint
November 14th, 2011
Greg, Margot and Simon Alexander joined more than 650 other Londoners in a sponsored SleepOut for Centrepoint, the youth homelessness charity. Currently, about 80,000 young people are homeless in the UK – and Centrepoint provides support and accommodation to 825 every day from 33 centres across London. Between them, our intrepid ‘rough’ sleepers raised £1,200 and the whole event £140,000. There is also still time to donate to their Just Giving page.
New Tetley Campaign
November 2nd, 2011
Our brand new work for Tetley has launched in France this week. The new campaign introduces ‘tea wishes’, the idea that every time you pull the drawstrings on your teabag, you can also make a wish for someone special.
It’s based on the insight that there is much more to tea drinking than a hot beverage. Making a cup of tea for someone shows that you care, and the unique Tetley drawstrings provides an opportunity to create a little ritual every time you make a cup.
Please take a look, and don’t forget to make a tea wish next time you squeeze the last drop from your teabag!
