'Walk the World' at World Travel Market 2010


wtw




Now in its third year, 'Walk the World' at World Travel Market is a fun and imaginative way to raise funds for Just a Drop.

Delegates are invited to purchase one of our exclusive pedometers and measure the distance they walk at the event.

You will be surprised and it could well explain those sore feet!

Provide pedometers to your staff, offer them to your clients or purchase one yourself. Costing only £10.00 they're much cheaper than in the shops.

And why priced at just £10.00?

Because that's all it takes to give a child with clean, safe water for life!
 
As only a limited number of Just a Drop 'Walk the World' pedometers will be available at World Travel Market please pre-book  yours now to avoid disappointment. 

Sponsoring 'Walk the World' means that you will be promoted in all our pre, at and post WTM publicity so ensuring that everyone knows that you are exhibiting as you raise brand exposure and reinforce your corporate social responsibility credentials.
 
For further details on this sponsorship opportunity contact Eddie Ottmann, Corporate Fundraising & Partnerships.

Just a Drop Lecture

Photo    Just a Drop’s Lecture ‘Is Water the new Oil?' held at the Royal Geographical Society in April 2009 asked whether water shortage could be the cause of the next major international conflict.

With around 1.8 billion people estimated to be living in water scarcity by 2025, BBC journalist and presenter of BBC current affairs programme HARDtalk, Stephen Sackur posed the question. 

Walk4Water

walking child  

Just a Drop in association with Here is the City is planning  to organise a charity walk in London's Square Mile.

Walk4Water will be based on walking ‘just’ 4 miles which is the average distance that women in some parts of rural Africa have to walk every day to collect clean, safe water for their families.

Not that we suggest that you need carry a heavy load of water. But a picnic basket could be fun!

We are currently looking for two companies to co-host the event as well as 4 supporting companies that sell walkimg and outdoor products Contact Eddie Ottmann, Fundraising & Corporate Partnerships for more details
