Perfect Gift for the World Cup

Handy MittsWe've come up with a fun, practical idea that will raise money for charity while providing the perfect excuse to turn on the footie and open a few beers with mates!
Have you been wondering what to buy the man who has everything? After all, he has you!!
Business in Berkshire approached a local business owner, inventor and jolly good bloke, Mr Keith Steptoe and made him an offer he couldn't refuse…
How about we use his latest invention… the Handy Mitt… to raise money for charity mate and raise the profile of those members who join in. Handy Mitts allow you to keep your oven gloves close at hand... no point in trying to explain in writing, click the Handy Mitt demo here...
Within seconds Keith said, "Another brilliant idea Jon, let's do it!"
Last week I had a meeting Sue from Thames Hospicecare (new name of Thames Valley Hospice) and she was only too happy to join in. She suggested one for the ladies and we agreed that would be a good idea for Christmas if this first promotion has the desired impact. So if your looking for frills, make our first promotion work and we'll repeat it for the ladies…
So here is how it works:
  • 100 units will generate approx £3k for Thames Hospicecare, 200 nearer £10k
  • For 200 units we need two sponsors for the gloves @ £750 + Vat each and 15 @ £200 to be included on the apron fan (the bottom area, under the pocket)
  • For 100 units we'd be looking at £500 and £100 plus Vat…
  • So you can either be a big player and take a glove or join in as an apron fan!
  • The above covers the cost of production and allows us then to gift all the aprons (less those required for sponsors = 50) to Thames Hospicecare to sell on one of the charity sites and therefore allow the additional tax relief to be added to the retail price.
  • A glove sponsor gets 5 aprons, a fan 2.
  • To determine which option we go for we need those who'd like to play to step forward. Complete the form below and we'll advise on which route we're taking in a few days:
