Today, I think my campaign has moved forwrd and has been seen really developing. Since, my friends and I composed an excellent letter to send to someone who works in Southwark's children's service communications. The letter consisted of all the important details about the campaign.

However, after school my friends and I where on the whtvr.org website designed for young people in Southwark, and we found that there is an opportunity for teenagers who have started campaigns, projects and activities that are supported already by an organisation, to receive funding or just advice on how to continue their campaigns by taking part in workshops .

Moreover, the gifted and talented co-ordinater in my school took pictures of people in my class and members of a textile club. These pictures will be sent to Heather as soon as I receive them.

Overall, today has been important to continue the success and development of Smile with Style.

Smile for the camera

This week I have just been gathering pictures, for a ChangeIt innovation video that is going to be made for the judges to see on May14 2008.

So far, I've managed to take lots of relevent pictures but, I'm having trouble uploading the video.

Bags, Bags and more bags ( environment friendly of course )

Today, I received a catalogue from a textile suppiler. The catologue contained bags, T-shirts and many different types of interesting new equipment which would be suitable for my campaign.

As a result, I have decided that my campaign will most definitely included selling bags as well as T-shirts, since I have noticed that their is a very high demand for bags from female teenagers .

Also I have finally worked out a solution, of how to get the designs on the T-shirts and bags with help from the talented artists, and the printing shop in Peckham . The plan is that , the artists will create positve images and messages, to paint on the bags will Berol Fabric paint -and dyes to colour the bags.
However, since the printing shop in Peckham are already well supplied with plain T-shirts of many varieties of colours, all I would need to do is bring them the designs on a piece of paper. Then they will blow up the designs and put them on the T-shirts !

Search Over

Today, my friend and I went to a printing shop in Peckham to find out how much it costs to print designs onto T-shirts, and bags.
We travelled there by bus, and found the location of the shop very convenient - since its close to bus stops theres very easy access to the shop.

Also, the people in the shop were friendly, and gave us all the information we need to know with out hesitation.

After a few minutes consultation with my friend, I decided that if my camapign was to be chosen to recieve £750, I would most definitely consider choosing that print shop to tranfer positive images on T-shirts.

I would have took a photo of the print shop however my friend and I didn't have a camera or a mobile phone with us . However, I plan to revisit the shop and take a picture of it during the holidays .
