I'm going to write and ask if she can shed any light on our claim to be the first charity to ask everyone for just £1. According to the reply my sister had, she gets lots of charity requests so she's in a great position to know the answer :) You’re probably right.

We're still so unknown but I'm hoping that as people get to know about Give A Brick fundraising by people unconnected to the charity could become a reality. I'd love us to be the online version of Children In Need. Maybe I should speak to the BBC ;) .-= Eleanor´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.giveabrick.com/life-without-limbs-life-without-limits/">Life Without Limbs? Life Without Limits!</a> =-.

My sister wrote to HRH The Queen to ask her to Give A Brick but she said no :( We had an idea called 'Sofa4Change' which utilized YouTube and infamous folks. Another thing to add to the 'todo' list :) .-= Eleanor´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.giveabrick.com/life-without-limbs-life-without-limits/">Life Without Limbs? Life Without Limits!</a> =-.

That's fantastic. Personally I think you can have a whole network of 'little give a bricks' with each mini team organising their own event. But why not hold a fundraising event via Youtube or Twitter? .-= Matthew Needham´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BigRedTomatoCompany/~3/V0rwNEwo4rQ/">What’s going on?</a> =-.
