Here's the deal. I work for you and you make some children very happy. We all win.
As you may already know I'm heading to Africa in November with friends from the world of advertising to give away footballs to some of the world's most disadvantaged children. It's all for a charity called The Great Football Giveaway. To do so I need to raise some money to buy the balls. £10 will buy a ball which I will personally put in the hands (or at the feet) of a child in Tanzania. So far my Friends and work colleagues have been brilliant. I know people get hit with requests all the time in work which is why I've asked everyone to just retweet the link if they don't want to donate.
Despite my efforts I've some way to go to reach my personal target of £1500 and need to up my game. I'm about 1/3 of the way there which means I've got about 1 month to raise a grand. As the album goes 'A Grand Don't Come For Free' so I'm offering my services in exchange for donations.
So, does your company need consultancy, creative workshops or inspirational lunch-time sessions? Are you after youth insights, technology trends or just some really simple ideas around social media? Are struggling with an idea for a campaign or client I can help you with. I'll give you an hour of my time all for a donation of your choosing.
Some of the companies and events I've spoken at in the past include Ogilvy, AMV BBDO and DARE in the world of advertising, the BBC, Radio Academy and the Royal Television Society in broadcast, and couple of brilliant TEDx events to name a few.
I'm happy to come to your place for either lunchtime sessions or after 6 as long as it doesn't interfere with my Radio 1 work. I'm also based in Manchester and London so the options are open for companies in the North and South.
Drop me a line if you think you could use my knowledge in return for a donation. If you just want to make a donation you can do so here. Easier still, just retweet this blog and spread the word. It'll cost you nothing to do that.
