Ideasfoundry in the news


Ideasfoundry is in the news - but more importantly we have some good results. On August 15, the Manchester Evening News printed an article on our initiative to help a local charity (readers were invited to nominate their favourites) - an organisation that isn't in the limelight like other well know national or international chairites.

On August 16, we recieved a call from Helen Larkin - representing a charity called Disabled Living. Founded in 1890s, the Charity is currently under severe financial pressure. She wants our help to revatilise the ailing charity. Helen was absolutely delighted - she had got to know of our initiative late on August 15, and wasted no time in giving a call to the Newspaper - who put her in touch with the Chamber of Commerce, who in turn gave her our contacts. Her call makes our effort seem meaningful - and very very relevant. Stephn Brook, Alison Raftery, Lisa Lawson and Paul Clement have all pointed to some quality links: relevant local organisations that seem to be doing some good work in UK's NW.

Valerie, our marketing intern who has played a key role in developing this initiative would be leaving us on the 25th of August(she goes back to Paris) - and her efforts deserve a good round of applause.
