Over the past three weeks, Access Self Storage stores from across the nation have been receiving Easter egg donations on behalf of a number of charities.
So far the donations have been eggscellent and notable mentions go to:
  • Access Self Storage, Northampton collecting over 154 eggs for the Northamptonshire County Council Adoption Team 
  • Access Self Storage, Manchester collecting over 100 eggs for the Children’s Adventure Farm Trust
 Access Self Store Northampton, Store Manager, Robert Samuel. 

A big thank you to every person or organisation who has donated to this wonderful cause. We are still hoping for an eggstra push at the following stores to achieve that lucky 100 eggs: Acton, Boston Manor and Ealing (for Acton Homeless Concern), Coventry ( for Tiny Tim’s Children’s Centre), Cricklewood (for The Children’s Society), Derby (for Rainbow Children’s Hospice), Kingston (for Kingston Food Bank), Portsmouth (for Rowan’s Hospice), Selly Oak (for Queen Elizabeth Hospital Charity), Southampton (for Rainbow’s Centre), Sunbury (for The Friends of Hounslow Portage) and Sutton (for Sweets for Life).
Last year the Access Self Storage stores collected over 500 eggs from 11 stores. Click hereto read more or go to https://twitter.com/access4newsor

And that’s all yolks.

Only 61 days until Christmas! But already Golden Goose PR is racking up the coverage for our client, Access Self Storage, which launched its Christmas campaign this month.

We’ve been asking communities across the UK to get into the festive spirit a little early, by donating new and unused presents, games and toys to the Access Self Storage Christmas Collection in aid of the Children’s Society.

Access Self Storage has created special drop-off points in its stores, where gifts will be collected and delivered in time for Christmas to local Children’s Society shops.

GGPR will reveal the surprises behind the door as part of the official countdown to Christmas on the first of December.

The Children’s Society works with and supports some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young people in the UK, who really need help at Christmas. Gifts that are donated will raise funds for often overlooked young people such as runaways and carers, and provide support for families of young children who live in poverty.

In 2011, Access Self Storage collected 5,000 toys for charity and even received donations of signed boxes of ‘fashion Barbies’ from couture designer Julien MacDonald.

Access Self Storage spokesperson Kevin Pratt said: “For 2012 we’re aiming to beat our Christmas Collection record and can’t wait to invite local guests to unlock our doors in December. There’s a rumour we may even get a hand from Father Christmas.”

Supporting Lord Coe and the PSP Association

Golden Goose PR has been involved with many fantastic charities over the years: Samsung’s pink ribbon campaigns with Breakthrough Breast Cancer; film charity MediCinema; Bottletop and non-profit organisation Peace One Day.

It was for this reason that we were approached by the PSP Association , a charity created in 1994 by Brigadier Michael Koh OBE and his wife Sara, after she was diagnosed with the illness.

PSP is a rare and rapid degenerative brain disease which far too many people are still unaware of.

It affects fewer than six in 100,000 – but the people and their families who live with the terminal diagnosis need all the help they can get.

Lord Coe got involved with the charity several years after it was set up, and then by tragic coincidence his mother Angela was diagnosed with PSP and passed away in 2005.

It was an incredible evening as Lord Coe hosted his first event for the PSP Association at The Dorchester , called ‘My Journey to 2012′.

Guests including Daley Thompson, Steve Cram and Duncan Goodhew came to the event to support Lord Coe and raise awareness of PSP.

Olympic gold medal shooter Peter Wilson also attended, as did model David Gandy, who performed a key role celebrating British fashion in the Olympic closing ceremony.

Sir Michael Parkinson, Sir Philip Green and Lord Archer were all a huge part of the event – with Sir Philip noted for his generous bidding in the auction.

The highlight, however, was the moving speech by Hannah Daykin whose father passed away from PSP just three weeks ago.

Over £200,000 wss raised which will help fund research into finding a cure for PSP and assisting those living with the disease.
