The April edition of the London Bloggers meetup is nearly upon us and I am delighted to say that charity Fashion Targets Breast Cancer has asked if they could support our event with some food, drinks, goodies and a fantastic competition.
Haven’t heard of the charity before?
Well as a quick intro, it was setup by Ralph Lauren in 1994 as the fashion industries response to breast cancer. The campaign raises funds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer, the UK’s leading breast cancer charity and to date has raised over nine million quid, nice!
So what’s the competition then? Well, you all have the opportunity of getting your sticky mits on £100 worth of gift vouchers for one of the retailers that supports the charity (possibly TopShop or M&S).
What do you have to do to win this prize….? It’s simple answer the following question on this blog in 100 words or less:
Why should charities use online communications to support their cause?
Simple. Just add your entry as a comment on this blog before the closing deadline of 12 midday on Monday 27th April. The winner will be chosen by the charity and announced at the meetup on the 28th April.
In the meantime, don’t forget to RSVP for a place at the meetup. There will be the usual great crowd of phenomenally interesting people to meet, from brand new bloggers, to seasoned hacks and everyone in between. As always, anyone who blogs, or is interested in blogging is welcome.

That’s right, the London Bloggers Meetup in February is being sponsored by our friends at Bacardi Breezer. Why? I hear you ask. Well, I’ll tell you.
This month Bacardi Breezer launched a refreshing new 100 calories range in fresh and fruity Blueberry, Raspberry and Pomegranate and to celebrate the wise people at Bacardi have decided to treat the London Bloggers Meetup members to some samples, free drinks and a fantastic competition.
One lucky winner will pick up a guilt free shopping spree at House of Fraser with a £150 shopping voucher up for grabs. Go on indulge in some designer shopping for a ‘New Year new you’ wardrobe. The fun doesn’t stop there, Bacardi Breezer has also provided two £75 shopping vouchers for two lucky runners up. Nice!
After hitting the shops, what better way to relax than with the great tasting refreshing blend of tropical flavours, BACARDI Rum and sparkling water, that make up the Bacardi Breezer 100 calories range…saving you calories, and helping you stick to your New Year’s resolutions!
Sounds good right? So how do you get your sticky mitts on these fantastic prizes then? As always it requires a little creativity. All you have to do is answer the following question:
Bacardi Breezer 100 calories has just that, 100 calories. The most fun I’ve ever had burning off 100 calories is…
Your answer can be a text comment posted up on this blog, a drawing scanned in and emailed to me, or a video posted on YouTube, or any combination of these. The three most entertaining posts entered before the deadline of 12 midday on Monday 23rd February and as decided by a panel of expert judges will pick up the prizes. To win the grand prize you must attend the Meetup on the 24th February.
Well, what are you waiting for, come on London Bloggers, get creative! Make us laugh and you’re in with a good chance.

I’m getting pretty excited as we approach the next London Bloggers Meetup. Firstly because we’ve jumped over the 100 registrations mark for the first time ever. As it stands we have 117 bloggers confirmed for next week which is simply great.
The second reason why I’m excited is we have a last minute competition which will interest all of you bloggers working in social media. I have one FREE ticket to the Future of Social Media conference up for grabs, courtesy of our friends at United Business Media. What’s so great about that you might say, well, I’ll tell you:
- The tickets retail at over 500 quid, so that’s quite a saving
- The one day conference includes presentations from Andy Hobsbawn from Agency.com, Rohit Bhargava from Ogilvy, Mark Watts-Jones, Head of Innovation at Orange, Ask.com, Xing, Last.fm, Plaxo.com and more.
- There is a fantastic agenda covering topics such as leveraging online communities, determining the future of social media marketing and much more..
- To quote the organisers “This is an essential event for any marketing, PR, branding, online, digital and corporate communications professional looking to capitalise on the power of social media”.
For more details check out the website, but essentially the conference is being held at the Cumberland Hotel on Thursday 29th January.
What do you need to do to get your sticky mits on this fantastic prize?
As with most London Bloggers Meetup prizes it requires you to make me laugh. That’s right, the ticket will be awarded to the person who writes / draws / vlogs the most entertaining response to the following question in the comments for this post:
I deserve to win the free ticket to the Future of Social Media conference because…
Now that shouldn’t be too hard for all of you fantastically creative writers and bloggers. If you want to post a video, simply add it to YouTube (or other) and post up the link in the comments, or for images, email to me via the Meetup page.
Well, what are you waiting for, get started. The winner will be announced on Tuesday 27th Jan (i.e. at next week’s Meetup). The deadline for entries is 8pm on Monday 26th Jan.
Cheers,
Andy
The small print: the conditions of the prize are that a) you have to attend as I have only ONE ticket which rather than use myself, I’m giving away to one of you fine folk. b) you must live blog from the event. c) you must write a guest post for Londonbloggers.net about the conference.
Nothing too strenuous there I feel.
