Christmas Clothing Give away - Help Needed -
5 November 2011, at 23:55
Hey guys and girls,

I am arranging a Free Christmas Give Away of donated clothes on Christmas Eve, I have asked a friend to design a poster (And a logo but I will stall that idea now as that is more to do with Positivity Bristol and it's not as urgent as the poster) but he has yet to get round to it and so I thought I would ask here as I don't know anyone else really.

I will post the details of the event so you know exactly what I am doing:

Positivity Bristol Presents
The Christmas Eve Clothing Giveaway

Positivity Bristol is a new scheme set up this winter, the idea behind Positivity Bristol is to celebrate all the great things that happen in Bristol.

After some thinking of what I could do this winter to “Give something back” I decided that the simple ideas are often the best.

So on the 24th December 2011 we plan to converge upon the Bear Pit
in central Bristol at 10am with clothing donated by the good people of Bristol and give it away completely free, also featuring the “Positivity Bristol” wall and hopefully many other things. J

I am sure that we all have that coat that we no longer wear, a pair of gloves that have been replaced by a better pair for the winter, usually we would throw them away or quite often they just get chucked to the back of a wardrobe and never thought about again.

If you do, now is the perfect chance to get rid of said items and at the same time hand them on to someone else that can use them and enjoy them.

All items of clothing are welcome, condition is not to much of a problem (Of course not full of holes!) And beyond the standard t-shirts, trousers stuff like Hats, Gloves and Scarves would be very welcome as well because we have a long winter ahead of us. Some special items such as Sleeping bags etc will be held back from the main drop off and given directly too people that need them, hopefully we can do this through the “Caring at Christmas” project but I am yet to confirm this.

All you need to do is Bag the items of clothing up in a black bag, give me a call, text or email (Details at the bottom of the page) and I will arrange for them to be picked up. Simple hey?

If you have any ideas or offers of help I would be interested to hear them too. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thank you,

Daniel


I have of coursed removed my mobile and email address, basically what I am looking for is a simple (Easy to print) but professional flyer advertising the event.

The only details that have to be on there are:

"Bristol Positvity presents The Christmas Eve Clothing Give away" (Does not have to be all on the same line)

Then the time date and place on there somewhere which is:

10AM, 24/12/2011, The Bear Pit

And then just saying we really need donations of clothing which we can arrange collection for and then to include my email and mobile number (I can inbox to you)

I can't offer much back for this but you will be helping with something that is hopefully going to make people smile in a few weeks time. :)

You're work will also be seen by a lot of people (Please feel free to put your own name or something in one of the bottom corners, my mate was going to put his design name) and it is likely that this will be published as an advert in the Bristol Big Issue Christmas addition which sells around 40,000 copies every year.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks a lot :)
