Much excitement amongst the Fairtrade team as the freshly printed Fairtrade Fortnight tent cards arrive at W+K London.

These irresistibly pick-upable big mugs will be sent out to businesses all over the country to sit on peoples' desks and let them know about Fairtrade Fortnight 2010. On the back, the mugs explain our campaign for next year, The Big Swap (swap your usual stuff for Fairtrade stuff), and act as a cheeky reminder to any lazy tea-making co-workers: that it is their turn to get the kettle on, and make a Fairtrade brew.

Enjoying a big cup of tea are Fairtrade team Katherine, Alice (only her second day at W+K, would you believe), Lou and Ray.

We did a shout-out for sporty girls on this blog last week in search of the lucky 20 who will form our Nike Girls Team later this year. We carefully chose almost 30 of you to join us on Thursday night as we kicked-off the selection process.

Ranging from rugby to cheerleading, the girls represented a wide range of disciplines but what the girls shared in common was a pure dedication to their training and a passion for their performance.

There were hands on activities engaging the girls, with plenty of opinion-swapping, collage-forming, experience-sharing tasks – and even a group hula-hooping session to get those sporty pulses racing.

 
Kerry Williams, Team GB's Hockey hopeful for 2012, talked openly about
what sport means to her and shared her ambitions for the Olympics with
the girls.

Going forward, the successful girls will formally be invited to join
the Nike Girls Team, the online research community where over the
course of a year they will be invited to share opinions on product and
views on ads. More coverage as it happens.
