Run Off Depression: A Campaign from the Heart
The Lucy Rayner Foundation’s mission is all about shining a light on the crucial connection between physical and mental health. They do this through their well-known campaign, ‘Run Off Depression.’ This campaign encourages people to lace up their running shoes not just for their physical well-being but also to nurture their mental health. It’s a powerful message that resonates with so many.
Measuring Success with Heartfelt Metrics
While success isn’t all about numbers, it certainly doesn’t hurt to have some stats to cheer about. To gauge the success of their event, the Run Reigate team keeps a close eye on two key metrics: the number of runners proudly sporting their charity’s T-shirts and the total amount raised.
This year, their hearts swelled with pride as they welcomed a whopping 68 runners and raised a magnificent £9,429.18! These numbers aren’t just numbers; they’re a testament to the unwavering support and generosity of a community that truly cares.
A Friendly Chat with Emma from The Lucy Rayner Foundation
Now, let’s transition to our delightful conversation with Emma from The Lucy Rayner Foundation. We asked her four essential questions about the promotional products they used and their impact. This foundation has been an absolute joy to collaborate with—friendly and thoroughly professional in every way. So, without further ado, let’s jump into those burning questions, shall we?
Q. How did you connect with Hotline, and why were they the ideal choice as sponsors for promotional items?
When we were on the lookout for a partner to assist with our event, Hotline immediately caught our eye. Their impressive range of products gave us plenty of options to choose from. But what truly set them apart was their exceptional customer service and their knack for making us feel valued as clients. We couldn’t have been happier with the products we received, and we wholeheartedly recommend them as providers of personalised and branded items.
Q.Tell us about the unique promotional items featured at the event and how they enhanced the overall experience.
Hotline came through with two fantastic items: logo bugs and water bottles. The logo bugs proudly displayed our charity’s logo and campaign title, making them cherished keepsakes for both us and the runners who supported our cause. What’s more, the logo bugs were a big hit with the young runners participating in the Kids Race. Additionally, we surprised our runners with personalised water bottles from Hotline, a gesture that allowed us to express our gratitude for their fundraising efforts and made each runner feel like a valued member of Team LRF.
Q. What are your thoughts on the promotional products you received and the ordering process? Any feedback?
We have nothing but praise for both the quality of the products and the ordering process. The customer service we received from Hotline was top-notch, and the entire process was incredibly straightforward.
Q. How did these promotional products contribute to increasing the event’s visibility and ensuring that people remember both the event and its sponsors?
As mentioned earlier, the logo bugs and water bottles played a crucial role in expressing our appreciation to our runners. They also served as cherished mementos, helping everyone remember this event for years to come. These promotional products strengthened the connection between our runners, our charity, and our event’s sponsors, leaving a lasting impression on all involved.
A BIG Thank You!
A massive shoutout to The Lucy Rayner Foundation for reaching out and welcoming us into their incredible journey. I’ve got to say, working with Emma and her team has been an absolute delight, and that’s exactly why we’re so passionate about collaborating with charities that are making a tangible impact. Here’s to your future success, and we can’t wait to join forces again for your next event!
